Glardon-Vallorbe LO0406-HSS Knife Traditional Gravers-2.2mm to 2.8mm

Glardon-Vallorbe LO0406-HSS Knife Traditional Gravers are Swiss-made high speed steel engraving tools requiring shaping and fitting into a handle before use. High speed steel is harder than carbon steel, holds an edge longer, and requires less sharpening when working with most metals — making these the professional’s choice for generations.

Manufactured by Usines Metallurgiques de Vallorbe SA (UMV) of Vallorbe, Switzerland, these gravers are identified by the Fish trademark and the Glardon-Vallorbe Swiss Made name. Previously sold in the USA under the Grobet name, they are now offered under the factory brand name Glardon-Vallorbe, consistent with the rest of the world. Jewelers and stonesetters everywhere rely on the consistent quality and perfect temper of these precision-made tools.

Suitable for use with all types of metals, wood, bone, ivory, and onyx. Used by engravers, stone setters, die sinkers, jewelers, and watchmakers. Many gravers are marked with both the USA graver number and the Swiss graver number. Swiss sizing is given in 1/10 mm increments; USA sizing is also provided where available.
