The knife is not recommended for Elementary Sloyd, as children may not have sufficient strength for its use. It is a useful tool, however, in places where no other can be used conveniently. The knife recommended has a blade three inches long, with a straight bevel on both sides and a four-inch handle. The tang of the blade is riveted through the handle so as to make it more secure.
