What it does
Square point knife with an 8" x 1" x .083" blade of hardened high-carbon chrome vanadium steel, 14 gauge. The blade is riveted and held by a nickel-plated ferrule in a hardwood handle.
How to use it
- Work standing, with the material flat on a bench over scrap, the handle in a full fist and your off hand behind the blade.
- Choke up for control on a scribe line; drop back for power on a long draw. Keep the blade low so it shears.
- Deepen cuts in rubber and heavy hide over repeated strokes. Hone square on a stone and wipe dry after wet rubber or damp fiber.

Common questions
Why an eight-inch blade?
Length lets the blade reach into the material, such as slabbing a paper roll or drawing through a deep foam bun.
How is it different from the 60810?
The 60810 has the same 8" x 1" x .083" blade plus a molded finger guard. Cutting performance is the same.
How is it different from the 60870?
The 60870 has the same blade on a seven-inch smooth handle for two-handed, long-reach cuts. Choose the 60780 if you do not need two-hand leverage.
Is it good for foam?
Yes, especially deep buns. On dense foam, the hollow-ground 6" knives 60720 and 60750 cut better.
