The round rod is ideal for turning a hook on scrapers with a typical hardness in the Rockwell (c) range of 40 to 51. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe pointed rod is used when the round rod won’t turn a hook because of the hardness of the steel. The pointed rod focuses your downward pressure on a single point and can turn a hook on the hardest scrapers. (Note the pointed rod is a little too aggressive for use on typical scrapers.)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe rods are mounted in a no-frills aluminum handle that is thoughtfully designed. The handle has a cross-guard, much like the guard on a sword. It prevents the tool from slipping forward off the tool, sending your knuckles against the scraper.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe carbide rods are angled for turning a typical hook. So you simply hold the handle horizontal to the floor and the geometry of the handle does the tilting for you. You can, of course, tilt the handle a little to produce a different hook.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFinally, the burnisher has a hang hole and comes with a sewn leather case to protect it from getting covered in metal filings and sharpening swarf.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAs a nice detail, these burnishers are laser-etched with the Crucible logo to match your \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/lostartpress.live\/collections\/tools\/products\/crucible-card-scraper\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCrucible card scraper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFor details on how to sharpen a card scraper with the Arno, click \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.lostartpress.live\/2019\/03\/20\/how-to-sharpen-a-curved-or-flat-scraper\/\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ehere\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crucible Tool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":14843053998143,"sku":"TOOL-BURNISHER","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0306\/3197\/products\/ARNO-web_IMG_1962.jpg?v=1557408864","url":"https:\/\/lostartpress.live\/products\/arno-burnishers","provider":"Lost Art Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
