Mine is like that.
Yes, I have couple that are made from an old saw plate. They work well. I kinda like the hasty holder that MIke has made. I’m going to try that, I hold them by hand right now and my hands do get tired.Before dropping a small fortune on scrapers, has anyone had any success with making them from old saw blades? I have several of those lying around......
I have the Lee Valley/Veritas scraper holder. It works great with a properly set up card scraper.
A Stanley No.80 is also a good cabinet scraper. Mine came with a Hock blade, bonus.
Are we talking circular saw blade or hand saw? I have both but the circulars are mostly thin kerf carbide tipped that wouldn't flex much. Got a few of the thicker non carbide older blades too, and either one could be cut easily. But I'd think you would rather have a hand saw blade because it would flex more.Yes, I have couple that are made from an old saw plate. They work well.

If you can flex even a thin kerf circular saw blade as a scraper then I’d be a little afraid of you. I was speaking of handsaw plate cut as a scraper. Now I have played with fresh cut glass, and it makes a great scraper, but no flex. I’d be be more inclined to make marking knife blades and things of that nature out of a circular saw blade.Are we talking circular saw blade or hand saw?
