Does this draw knife symbol look familiar to anyone? I stopped by a local estate sale and found an old Norlund Voyager axe head and he threw this draw knife into the deal as well.

You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

I think it reads CLEANCUT , all one word. I believe that is a Trademark logo. Not sure if that is the the name of the maker. Nice finds, Lou

Don't know, but folding handles are nifty if you do much work with a drawknife in the field.  Hardly essential for one used in the shop, but always cool.

The handle attachment on that one looks like a knife I used to own, but moved on (too much rust, and the wood on one handle was gone, if I recall correctly).  But I can't recall the maker's name on that one.

Thanks Lou, that's it, CLEANCUT! I've never bought a draw knife, I didn't really want this one, I only wanted the axe head. But now I have a new tool to obsess over, find out where it was made, when it was made, how much was it when new, is it rare or common, etc, etc, etc.... :smiley:

Drawknives are really nifty tools - elemental, in the same way that axes are.  Once you learn to use one, you'll be amazed at what you can do in the field with one.

Do the handles have a large cut out notch for the blade?  I find that type very uncomfortable to use.  I would rather just have a regular drawknife with nice tight handles.  They are great for fitting handles on things.  I just made a glut out of applewood, and used one quite a bit on it.  I will have to post a pic.
