Interesting. I did not know that Victorinox grafting knives too. How much
does it cost? Here in India we get excellent budding/grafting knives for
less than a dollar.

I have a Victorinox grafting knife, and despite it being right handed and me
being left handed we get along fine. I've only done apple and pear, though,
never the tough stuff like the nuts.

This spring I plan to try my hand at grafting some hickory and walnut
seedlings. My cheap-o fluorescent orange "grafting" knife works reasonably
well after sharpening for a few apple grafts each spring, but I'm thinking
I should upgrade to "the real thing" before attempting nut trees.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a good brand/model? I've been
impressed by every victorinox knife I've used, but thought I'd put it out
to this group before diving in on a purchase.
Thanks all -
