{"product_id":"jack-richeson-small-cut-out-tool","title":"Small Cut Out Tool","description":"\u003cp\u003eClay work demands precision when removing material from formed pieces. This compact cut-out tool gives you that control through a 1 7\/16-inch double-edged blade that handles both refinement cuts and deliberate carving. The steel blade maintains its edge through repetitive use, whether you're opening decorative windows in slab construction or trimming excess material from wheel-thrown forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJack Richeson mounts the blade securely to a wooden handle with an aluminum ferrule, eliminating the wobble that compromises cut accuracy. At 6 1\/8 inches overall, the tool provides enough reach for interior work without becoming unwieldy during detail passes. The double-edged design means you can work from either direction without repositioning your grip, particularly useful when cutting symmetrical patterns or working around curved surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool excels at tasks requiring more control than a knife but less aggression than a ribbon tool: piercing decorative elements, refining foot rings on thrown pieces, or cutting clean openings in sculptural work. The fixed blade design offers predictable performance that improves with familiarity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jack Richeson","offers":[{"title":"6 1\/8 in. \/ each","offer_id":47979324899557,"sku":"68837","price":5.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s68837.jpg?v=1770332502","url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/jack-richeson-small-cut-out-tool","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
