Collection: Clams

Adjust the thickness of the blades, remove infinitesimal layers of wood, and achieve an impeccable emission response in your reeds with our specialized selection of woodwind reed knives. In the world of double reed instruments (oboe, English horn, bassoon) and single reed instruments (clarinet and saxophone), the scraping knife is the luthier's tool par excellence. A clean and controlled cut requires an ergonomic knife with an extremely fine edge, capable of sliding smoothly over the cane (Arundo Donax) without biting the fiber or leaving streaks. If you are looking to buy a high-quality reed knife, in our specialized online store we have the models preferred by artisans and soloists.

Our catalog includes scraping knives and blades made from high-purity steels adapted to the main scraping styles:

• Square Grind / Single Bevel Knives: Ideal for European and French style scraping. They feature a perfectly straight edge that allows you to work the tip, heart, and spine of the reed with total control over pressure.

• Hollow Grind / Concave Knives (Double Bevel): Highly valued for their balance and for the ease of maintaining a constant angle during scraping. They offer exceptional cutting sharpness for both left-handed and right-handed users.

• Folding and Ergonomic Pocket Knives: Designed with noble wood handles (ebony, rosewood) or high-grip resin and folding blades or with a protective leather sheath, perfect for carrying in your case and making last-minute adjustments in the dressing room or during rehearsals.

• High Hardness Steels (HSS and Carbon Steel): Heat-treated blades that retain their sharpness for dozens of work sessions and respond perfectly to honing with Arkansas or diamond sharpening stones.
