Ergonomically designed multi purpose carbide scraper with new profile (triangular, drop and pear) carbide blades for precision work. 2 component handle for better grip and comfort. Includes clip-on holster.

I like this tool for smoothing small fillets. There are three different carbide inserts available (shown below) - one of the 449 triangular inserts comes with the handle and holster.

I just discovered another use for this scraper.  As I was preparing to make repairs to my Ladybug, after the unfortunate breakdown in last summer's Texas200, I found I needed to remove some paint so that I could fiberglass an area that needed a patch. The Bahco scraper with the standard triangular insert did a wonderful job. It easily removed the paint and because the insert is carbide, it stayed sharp throughout the project.
