Designed for fine shading and general engraving work, these blanks are sold individually and represent a refined approach to graver geometry — optimized for professionals who prefer tools shaped and sharpened to a fine-to-medium size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1.8mm round (0.071\") profile is the result of careful testing and real-world feedback from professional engravers. The tool is small enough to allow quick sharpening with minimal material waste, yet strong enough to handle the majority of fine metal engraving applications. The round shank shape not only reduces wasted tool metal but also provides a more comfortable feel during use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese blanks are intended for use with GRS 1.8mm Round Quick Change Tool Holders (part number 104.872). For sharpening, the Easy Graver sharpening fixture (part number 103.700) used with a Diamond Hone system is highly recommended. The QC Tool Holder for 1.8mm Tools (part number 104.852) is made specifically to hold small tools like this blank, delivering the highest level of accuracy when sharpening with diamond hones. C-Max Carbide can also be sharpened by hand using Swiss Ceragloss diamond polishing wheels with a flex shaft or micromotor, available in medium cut blue (part number 110.107) and fine polish yellow (part number 110.113).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeveloped with input from leading professional metal engravers worldwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.8mm round (0.071\") shank profile minimizes material waste and speeds sharpening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSized for fine-to-medium engraving work — strong enough for the majority of fine metal engraving jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRound shank shape improves comfort during extended use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC-Max Carbide delivers a metallurgical balance of hardness and toughness optimized for hand engraving and stone setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolds a fine edge longer than conventional carbide gravers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with GRS 1.8mm Round Quick Change Tool Holders (part number 104.872)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold by the piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8mm (0.071\")\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShank Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRound\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eC-Max Carbide (tungsten carbide)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eIntended Use\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFine shading and general engraving work\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSold As\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndividual piece\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompatible Tool Holder\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGRS 1.8mm Round Quick Change Tool Holders (part number 104.872)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlendo GRS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNotes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold by the piece — order the quantity needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThese are blank gravers and require shaping and sharpening before use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpening with the Easy Graver fixture (part number 103.700) and a Diamond Hone system is recommended.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC-Max Carbide can be sharpened by hand using Swiss Ceragloss diamond polishing wheels with a flex shaft or micromotor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Glendo GRS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43582137893078,"sku":"102.780","price":13.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9832\/0342\/files\/grs-022-780-c-max-carbide-1-8mm-round-shank-graver-blanks-otto-frei.jpg?v=1719957230","url":"https:\/\/www.ottofrei.com\/ja\/products\/grs-022-780-c-max-carbide-1-8mm-round-shank-graver-blanks","provider":"Otto Frei","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
