For the true woodworking professional, you know the importance of using only the finest and most reliable tools possible. When it comes to moulders and planers, Williams and Hussey knives are the answer for which you have been looking. You can buy these knives either in a corrugated back or a smooth back. All of the knives are DGK performance-coated with a case hardened and black oxide coated. Tipped in carbide, these knives will amaze you with their performance and reliability.
When you are cutting the perfect finish to your wood project, you could use a lesser quality molding knife but you would find the final product to be disappointing. William and Hussey knives have been in production for over 50 years and have consistently outperformed other knife-making companies. When it comes to woodworking, compromise is not an option.
When searching the internet for moulding knives, pay close attention to the companies who sell them. You are looking for a company who offers quick estimates, provides a 30 day money back guarantee and is staffed by professionals like yourself to answer all of your woodworking questions.
If you need a custom knife made, you will want to talk to the different moulding knife manufacturers to find out how they prefer to receive your design. Some companies are fine with you scanning a sketch or rendering and emailing it to them. Others will ask you for an actual sample of the cut you want the William and Hussey knives to be able to do. You will find you will get a better product and one closer to your design specifications if you can send them a clean wood sample. That means no paint on or splitting in the wood.
Depending on the type of knife making material you want to use– steel or carbide– you will spend anywhere from $30 per inch up to $80 per inch, so it makes perfect sense that you get a knife that you can actually use. If you find that moulding knife is not what you wanted, you should be able to return it to the manufacturer within the first 30 days for a prompt refund. Allow them the opportunity to remake your knife and find out what it was that caused them to make a poor blade.
