The MHG Timber Framing Slick pairs the classic slick pattern with modern German metallurgy. MHG forges the high-alloy blade with a process that compacts the steel's microstructure, delivering the edge retention, elasticity, and durability that used to be reserved for hand-forged tools. It is made in true inch sizes specifically for American and Canadian framers, a rarity among European makers who usually just round their metric sizes.

Choose a canted blade for knuckle clearance on wide surfaces or a straight blade for all-around paring; both come on the regular handle. A slick is pushed, never struck, and once you have honed your edge, this one glides.

  • Options: Canted blade with regular handle; Straight blade with regular handle
  • Blade length: 7 in
  • Steel: forged high-alloy steel with compacted microstructure, true inch sizes
  • Handle: oiled ash
  • Use: pushed, never struck
  • Made in: Germany by MHG Messerschmidt
