RGM Etching Tools
These hand-sharpened etching tools are endowed with durability and precision. The scraper, burnisher, and tip will maintain consistent hardness due to the special heat treatment applied to the high carbon steel. This assures that the edges never lose their sharpness. The polished finish allows for better use of chemical products and easier cleaning at the end of the day. The oversized handle on the scraper tool provides a sure grip for improved control. The scraper is extra-long and the handle is made of shock-resistant fiberglass. The polished brass ferrule is thermally attached to create a unified structure that can even be hammered upon during use.
