Unlike traditional grooving compasses that rely on a cutting blade, this Blanchard Adjustable Grooving Compass with two points features two forged steel points, allowing for controlled marking and carving without the heaviness of a knife-style groove.
 
Thanks to its gouge-shaped foot, the compass can be used not only to mark guidelines but also to carve decorative lines and ornamental patterns, producing a clean, professional, and elegant finish. This makes it especially suitable for refined edge work, borders, and subtle decorative detailing where precision matters.
 
Manufactured using traditional methods, the tool combines strength with accuracy. The solid brass arms provide stability and smooth adjustment, while the forged steel tips ensure long-term durability and consistent performance. Entirely handmade, it reflects the excellence of British artisanal craftsmanship, with each piece carefully assembled and finished for workshop use rather than mass production.
 
Designed for use on vegetable-tanned leather, this compass suits both professionals and serious enthusiasts. As with many traditional tools, additional sharpening may be required to achieve optimal results depending on your working style and leather weight.
