Back in the summer of 1987 master craftsman Tage Frid showed me his ingenious method of finishing the saw cuts on the pinboard of a half-blind dovetail joint.   I couldn't believe how well and fast his method worked - it was like magic! Neil, a student from South Africa, suggested I make Tage's idea into a tool.  That inspired my Kerf X-10 (extend the saw cut - get it?).  If you cut half-blind dovetails you will love this tool!

  • Kerf X-10: Regular size works with our dovetail saw.  
  • Kerf X-10: Regular size completes the saw cut in half-blind dovetails.

Well who would have thought

... that this tool would be such a half-blind dovetail game changer!? If you remember to clamp before hammering away (I almost forgot the first time I used this) it makes the process so much quicker. Great tool

Half-blind dove tail game changer

I'm only a hobbyist woodworker, so I don't do half-blind dove tails every day. However, after receiving the X-10 and using it (mostly practicing on scrap) I'm amazed at not only how much easier they are to make with this tool, but how much better the tail cavity quality is. It's night and day. Now I just need to acquire a little more skill that Rob demonstrates so effortlessly.

Received my Kerf-X 10 just 3 days after inguinal hernia surgery and was unable to use either one for about 15 days. But after my post op appointment and showing my surgeon what Half Blind and Through Dovetails were, he had no problems with me cutting dovetails by hand. This simple in design and function tool has the typical Rob Cosman quality and has taken away the anxiety of making half blind dovetails. Thanks Rob and to all of your staff.

Kerf X-10

I recently received my kerf X-10 tool along with a second marking knife (wanted to have one with knife and one with a saw blade). Haven't used the Kerf X-10 yet, but fit and finish are high quality. Shipment came early and as always, communication was excellent.

The marking knife/ saw are also great! I really appreciate the heft of this tool. It's solid and substantial. Really helps with the marking process.

As always, excellent Job Mr. Cosman and staff!
