Description

A quill knife needs to be sturdy and comfortable, and has a blade that is rounded on one edge, straight on the other, to facilitate making the correct cuts to a quill.

Available in left-handed and right-handed versions.

If you hold the “right hand” knife in your right hand with the sharp edge downwards, then the flat edge of the blade will be facing you. If you hold the “left hand” knife in your left hand with the sharp edge downwards, then the flat edge of the blade will be facing you.

If you cut quills towards you using your right hand, or away from you with your left hand, you need a RIGHT knife.

If you cut towards you using your left hand, or away from you with your right hand, you need a LEFT knife.
