Members SUP Posted March 25, 2024 Members Report Posted March 25, 2024 I might be able to lay my hands on a Devilbiss swivel knife. It seems to be in good condition. Are they good? Are they worth buying? Quote Learning is a life-long journey.

Members SUP Posted March 25, 2024 Author Members Report Posted March 25, 2024 I spelt the name wrong. Sorry. It is Divelbiss. Quote Learning is a life-long journey.

I just watched a Jim Linnel video & he talked about that brand swivel knife. He did mention the divelbiss knives use a different size shank on the blades, than most other swivel knives. Quote
Moderator bruce johnson Posted March 25, 2024 Moderator Report Posted March 25, 2024 I get them once in a while. Nothing special and on a par with the decent crafters grade swivel knives from the 60s. A step above the cheap bottom end craftool knives. A bit of a collectible for the people who collect swivel knives.

Members SUP Posted March 25, 2024 Author Members Report Posted March 25, 2024 Thank you @DieselTech and @bruce johnson. I'm not a collector, so I'll probably pass. Quote Learning is a life-long journey.

Yeah I see them on fleabay from time to time in that $40-$60 range. Lol can you have enough swivel knives thou? I got 4 different swivel knives, because I hate swapping between blades. Quote
Members SUP Posted March 25, 2024 Author Members Report Posted March 25, 2024 I was offered it for 15 here. But I don't do sufficient tooling to warrant many swivel knives. Quote Learning is a life-long journey.
