For over thirty years one of my most trusted dovetail tools has been my old red marking knife.  Taking the best of my old marking knife and adding some improvements, we have created the best knife for transferring tails to your pin board.  I think you will find this knife to be your missing link for transferring your tails to the pin board and cutting perfectly mating pins.

  • The knife body is made of metal and is surprisingly hefty.

  • Two piece body with space to store a second blade.

  • The rectangular handle will register in your hand to help you “feel” the blade's position.

  • Comes with our Making Knife Blade and my Regular Saw Tooth Blade.

  • .Replacement blades available.

Straight Marking Knife Blade:

  • This straight blade is designed for tracing tails onto the pin-board using traditional marking techniques.

  • Radius tip “track’s” in the end grain.

  • Wide at the blade tip for better registration against the tail.

Regular Saw-Tooth Blade:

  • Designed specifically for use with my dovetail transfer technique.

  • Made of the same blade material as my regular Dovetail Saw, .024 inch thick kerf.

  • Regular Saw Tooth Blade has 22 TPI so it fits into the kerf easily.
  • Allows you to "saw" a starting kerf in the pin-board.

    Well designed marking tool

    This is a quality item. Good heft and perfect fit in the saw kerf.

    Dovetail saw

    What an amazing tool. This tool, in addition to Shaun’s Shim, makes cutting dovetail joints so much easier and way more accurate.

    I’m just a hobbyist woodworker, so I’m not cutting dovetails every day, but when I do, it’s very nerve wracking and I’m never fully satisfied with the end result. After seeing Rob demonstrate the use of these tools, the stress level has gone down and my dovetail joints are an order of magnitude greater.

    Dovetail marking knife

    Great little tool. Feels well-balanced in my hand and does the job.

    Works great after tune up

    Used together with the Rob Cosman dovetail saw the pin layout is clearly marked using the Rob Kossman offset technique. Initially the teeth were binding in the kerf a bit but after I relieved the saw tooth set with a couple strokes on a diamond stone, it worked perfectly.
