Review: Comes Sharp-Be prepared for the hardness of 10v - This sucker comes nice and sharp. mine was flawless. I'm a big fan of these newer powdered metals (cpm-3v, s30v, pmv-11) so this was a must for me. 10v is one of the harder ones, so be prepared to sharpen with appropriate sharpening gear. I haven't sharpened it yet, but my shapton ceramics should be able to handle it with a little extra time spent. **Edit- Added some pictures of the knife with padauk handles Review: Super Sharp quality blade - Love this marking knife. Very sharp. I like that I can use it with or without scales. I will probably try adding my own since it comes with the brass rivers to add them which is also a nice touch. I have other DFM tools and they are all extremely well made. ## Features - Flat Back Blade gives a perfect reference for accurate layouts - The material CPM 10V has longer edge retention than most tool steels - CPM 10V is a Powder Metal, which grinds more easily than other tool steels - US Steel made in Upstate NY - AKA Scribe Knife, Scoring Knife, Striking Knife, Inlay Knife ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Manufacturer | DFM Tool Works | | Item Weight | 2.57 ounces | | Product Dimensions | 7 x 0.6 x 0.1 inches | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Material | Steel | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | ## Images ![DFM Marking Knife CPM 10V Tool Steel Longer Lasting Edge 5/8" x 7" MADE IN USA for Dovetails and other Woodworking Layout - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ZGbQE0qhL.jpg) ![DFM Marking Knife CPM 10V Tool Steel Longer Lasting Edge 5/8" x 7" MADE IN USA for Dovetails and other Woodworking Layout - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81vuieLdVuL.jpg) ![DFM Marking Knife CPM 10V Tool Steel Longer Lasting Edge 5/8" x 7" MADE IN USA for Dovetails and other Woodworking Layout - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91kOscV+UHL.jpg) ![DFM Marking Knife CPM 10V Tool Steel Longer Lasting Edge 5/8" x 7" MADE IN USA for Dovetails and other Woodworking Layout - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81jcRFvNKNL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comes Sharp-Be prepared for the hardness of 10v *by T***T on May 2, 2019* This sucker comes nice and sharp. mine was flawless.

I haven't sharpened it yet, but a good Nicholson file doesn't seem to hurt the non-business end. Comes with three brass rivets to attach scales for it. Happy to purchase a quality product made in the USA from a small business owner. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/94817147-dfm-marking-knife-cpm-10v-tool-steel-longer-lasting-edge](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/94817147-dfm-marking-knife-cpm-10v-tool-steel-longer-lasting-edge) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-11-12*
