## Description

Stubai is one of Europe’s premier manufacturers of fine edge tools for woodworkers. These drawknives are hand forged from high carbon steel then hardened and tempered to hold a sharp edge. The Stubai drawknife is a mid-size tool which is useful for general woodworking applications such as timber and log work and furniture making. The handles are slightly offset from the blade. The cutting edge is 9 1/4” long x 1” wide. Overall length, 17”.

Review: Don't listen to reviews from unskilled people, this is great equipment - I use this knife to remove bark from Douglas fir trees for log cabin construction. These trees have thick and heavy bark. The knife works very well for the task, and if it works for me chances are that it will be good enough for whatever you might need it to do. I read a bunch of critical reviews of this knife, and I can say that I disagree. The knife arrived sharp, which truly isn't and shouldn't be a point of complaint anyway considering that yes, you will need to sharpen this tool periodically. Personally I would question any review that talks about the sharpness of a knife as a complaint. Any wood working tool will need sharpened during use and it's strange to imply otherwise. The handles are NOT plastic. They are high quality wood with a good coating of paint. Very sturdy. I saw a review saying that their tool rusted. This is likewise a bizarre complaint. Trees are full of water, and if you don't maintain your tools you can expect them to degrade. Simply clean and oil your knife after use, as you would with any woodworking equipment. All in all I would completely recommend this draw knife to anyone who needs a tool of this type. Spend the extra money and avoid the cheaper knives, you won't regret it.
Review: NOT AS PICTURED, but might work out better for me as sharpening is easier - This is a nice sturdy forged drawknife with a slight convex edge in two directions. The cutting edge is slightly convex (further out in the middle) and the blade is slightly convex (can rock on the back slightly when on a flat surface. This configuration suits me fine and the knife works very well for me. Mine has handles that screw onto the forged blade rather than the tangs that bend off the blade and go through the handles. So that's a miss because what I received was not what was pictured. However I think it might actually suit me better because it makes the blade easier to sharpen by making the handles easy to remove and replace. Handles being in the way are a lot of what makes these challenging to sharpen. The handles are aligned with the blade (their axis is parallel to blade back). Again, this works fine for me because it's a good compromise when using the knife both bevel up and bevel down as I do. The forging is excellent, Teutonic manufacturing ethics are clearly apparent. The back cleaned up nicely on a 1000 grit stone because the grinding marks were fine. Polished up on a 6000 grit waterstone the edge takes a mirror finish and holds an extremely sharp edge much better than I would have expected. A polished edge leaves a very smooth, glistening surface on dry wood and is very satisfactory indeed. It cuts green wood like butter and is fully satisfactory on that count as well. Comes with a plastic slip-on edge guard that's worth keeping track of until you can sort out a sheath of some sort. Otherwise it's going to be dangerous to keep in a drawer or bag, risking cuts to yourself and other items as well as risking edge damage. Overall, excellent and an excellent value at the $43 I paid for it, I would definitely do it again and recommend. Definitely a much better option than the somewhat less expensive Chinese versions you see available next to it here on desertcart for maybe 3/4 the price. Those are just disappointment waiting to happen.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does draw knife come with blade guard, if not can it be purchased?**
A: yes, mine did come with a blade guard, it also came sharp and was ready to use right when I recived it.

**Q: What is the hardness level of the steel?**
A: I don't know the actual hardness, but it it is a seriously good quality blade and really holds and edge.

**Q: Is it China made? Where was it produced?**
A: Stubia is a european manufacturer of different high quality metal components. I have learned of them from using their mountaineering equipment which is some of the best made. I cannot say for certain where the draw knife is made but have assumed that it was made in Europe. In other adds for the knife it is stated that it is produced by a European tool maker.

**Q: Would this do well for removing wood off large staves for bow making?**
A: Yes - I'd call it a medium duty drawknife.  It will give you much better control than a heavier duty knife as you near the final shape of your bow.  You will probably still want to use a spokeshave for the final shaping.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality tool
*by T***H on August 13, 2025*

This is a quality tool. Good steel, sharp edge, handles that should last a very long time. Some of the bad reviews are the fault of the reviewer. Hard steel that will hold an edge is high in carbon. Carbon steel will rust if you don't take care of it. Wipe it with an oily rag when you are done using it. The handles are not plastic. They are a tight grained hardwood with a thick, durable paint. One review says the blade angle is wrong. That's why the handles are attached the way they are. The user controls the angle while they are using it. I have spent many years working with many tools. A good tool like this will do what it is designed to do and be a pleasure to work with for a very long time.
