Customer Reviews

Back in the summer of 1987 master craftsman Tage Frid showed me his ingenious method of finishing the saw cuts on the pinboard of a half-blind dovetail joint.   I couldn't believe how well and fast his method worked - it was like magic! Neil, a student from South Africa, suggested I make Tage's idea into a tool.  That inspired my Kerf X-10 (extend the saw cut - get it?).  If you cut half-blind dovetails you will love this tool!

  • Kerf X-10: Regular size works with our dovetail saw.  
  • Kerf X-10: Regular size completes the saw cut in half-blind dovetails.

Appreciate Fine Tools

I've watched Rob use this tool several times. I purchased it and as usual it is first of all of finest quality as are all tools I have purchased from Cosman. This is a real time saver , it does a great job. Saves a lot of work that some times creates another problem.

Delighted!

Ordered the Kerf X-10 after watching Rob’s video on cutting half blind dovetails. I’d always struggled previously, but this tool is incredible. Very simple but works perfectly.
