King's X Report post Posted August 6, 2010 Scalpel blade or small wood carving tools. I found a set at Hobby Lobby for $5.99. I sharpened and stropped them and use them as hand held punches. I find my line and apply light pressure downward until it cuts through. The set comes in 6 different shapes/angles that are useful. Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
