Description

A scraping tool, often advertised as a cabinet scraper or universal scraper. The metal blade is slightly rectangular and narrows very slightly (an eighth of an inch) towards the blunt end. One edge is sharpened. A wing nut holds the plate to the handle. The plate is somewhat rusty. The plate is attached to a ball which, when the nut is loosened, rotates so one can lock in the exact angle they need. The wooden handle is splattered with a whitish yellow paint.
