I’ve got a few X-actos that I had planned to use for my first project. Then I saw episode on The Woodright’s shop of sawing with Chris Swartz and realized I might make my life easier with a good marking knife to get a good start on my saw cuts. I’m wondering if the handleless japanese knifes would be harder for my numb hands to use than one with a good handle on them?

Thanks for all the replies so far, found a few options I didn’t know about.

BTW, do you have to wait a month to get the Blue Spruce ones?
