Gift Set｜ Tools & Hardware ｜EC Lyons Square Graver

EC Lyons makes high-quality tools for wood engraving. These tools are made from high-carbon tool steel.
The square face produces a V-shaped groove. The depth of the cut is similar to its width. 
Particularly useful for cutting thin lines which swell dramatically, because the width of the line is dependent on the pressure used. It is possible to create a flowing line which widens and contracts, or to make short stabs which widen from a sharp point. Square Gravers are also useful when lightening areas of a block by stippling: repeatedly pecking at the wood with the tip of the tool, so that the surface bears a carpet of tiny incisions. Because of the shape of this tool, these stipples will have slightly sharp edges; engravers wishing to stipple a surface with round dots would be better off using a small round scorper.
The available sizes run numerically, from #1 to #7:
#1 is the narrowest tool. Use for extremely fine work
#3 and #5 are medium-fine tools. These are good for detailed, flowing lines and stippling.
#7 is a broad tool. Use to create significant, bold V-cuts.
