A Tungsten Carbide L-shaped Trimming Tool (TCW-3, Round tip) with Mopane Wooden Handle+Diamond file Designed by Hsin-Chuen Lin
Design:
The tool is combined with 3 parts, exotic Mopane wooden handle, brass cap and post, brazed with tungsten carbide blade.
1. The brazed stainless steel insert is thicker and longer for more durability.
2. The angle of the blade is much sharper.
3. In case, the tool is broken accidentally, the beautiful wooden handle is reusable by simply replacing the carbide blade. The replacement blade can be purchased separately.
4. Easier to resharpen, instruction provided.
Caution:
Though Tungsten Carbide can maintain the sharp cutting edge much longer, it is not related to steel, nor is it flexible or bendable in the fingers. Do not bend the end to see how strong it is.
Tungsten carbide is a very hard, dense material (ranking about 9 on Mohs scale). It is somewhat as brittle as fired ceramics. Please take good care to keep them from bumping on hard material, falls, or being moving around in a tool box when traveling.
Resharpening instruction:
Please watch the resharpening video here:

The blades stay sharp for months. If needed, using a fine diamond file (400 Grit or finer) sharpen the inner side of the blade. The edges of the tools have already beveled. By filing the inner part of the tools you should be able to make the tool sharp again.
