Description

The grafting knife with bark lifter FELCO 3.90-40 combines a 44 mm stainless steel curved blade with an integrated bark lifter. This tool is built for budding and grafting operations on fruit trees, rose bushes, and grapevines. The blade is beveled on one side, suited to right-handed users. The bark lifter positioned behind the blade edge allows quick separation of bark during budding without switching tools.

The red nylon handle incorporates an alloy liner for structural rigidity. Folded length measures 100 mm, and total weight is 51 g. This compact profile fits into pockets or tool belts during orchard rounds. The stainless steel blade resists corrosion from sap and moisture exposure in field conditions.

Grafting Knife with Bark Lifter Design and Construction

Blade Geometry and Material

The 44 mm stainless steel blade is ground with a single bevel, creating a sharp cutting edge on one side. This geometry produces clean cuts through cambium layers during grafting. The curved profile follows the natural motion of budding cuts. Stainless steel composition maintains edge retention and resists oxidation from plant acids.

  • Blade length: 44 mm
  • Material: stainless steel
  • Bevel: single-sided, right-hand configuration
  • Blade profile: curved
  • Integrated bark lifter behind cutting edge

The bark lifter extends from the blade spine, forming a flat spatula. This feature slides under bark flaps after the initial cut, lifting tissue without tearing. The lifter eliminates the need for a separate tool during budding sequences.

Handle and Ergonomics

The handle is molded from red nylon reinforced with an internal alloy liner. This construction balances light weight with structural strength. The nylon surface provides grip even when wet from dew or irrigation. The alloy liner prevents flexing under cutting pressure, maintaining blade alignment.

  • Handle material: red nylon with alloy liner
  • Folded length: 100 mm
  • Weight: 51 g
  • Hand orientation: right-handed

Compact dimensions allow single-handed operation and easy storage. The folding mechanism locks the blade securely in both open and closed positions. Total weight of 51 g reduces hand fatigue during extended grafting sessions.

Common Applications

This grafting knife is used for T-budding and chip budding on fruit trees, including apple, pear, cherry, and citrus species. The bark lifter is particularly useful during active growth periods when bark separates easily from cambium. Rose propagators use this tool for shield budding on rootstocks. Vineyard workers employ it for bench grafting and field budding of grapevines. The compact size suits nursery work where operators move frequently between rows.
