Sandvik Coromant 20mm hand-scraper

[flatlineParticipant @flatline]

Good evening – I have just bought a new Sandvik hand-scrapper from their UK base near Birmingham.

I rang them today to ask if the tool was supplied with a blade – but TBH there was a problem with communication – maybe a bad ‘line… The website image shows the tool, complete with blade, but the telephone conversation that I had seemed to indicate otherwise…

can anyone here confirm if the scraper will arrive complete with blade – or not…??

 

TIA

A mate mine has just bought one and yes no blade

Many thanks… I had thought that this might be the case…

There is also the question as to whether the blades supplied by Sandvik are ground & ready for use(?)..

I have read elsewhere that this certainly used to be the case; but reading through a few other forums (largely US-based) it may be that now they are supplied ‘blank’ – ready to be ground to suit the end-users requirement…

I use them straight out of the box.
You will need a way to sharpen them back to the mirror finish
