The Flat Shredder provides a long flat plane. For years tools like this were available at hardware stores. This type of rasp was originally designed to be used on wood, but then potters, sculptors and auto-body repairmen discovered how well the blade worked with other materials, like clay and auto-body filler. The problem with these rasps was the handle design - the handle would trap clay and get clogged.

When Michael visited potters in Japan he observed that it was common for them to pull, rather than push, their carving tools through the clay. This dragging motion allowed for less friction and a fluid cut. For years Michael made a variety of Japanese-style carving tools for his own use and he’s spent A LOT of time carving on clay to test them out. Made of high carbon steel and tempered to be very hard, the Dragtool is designed to grace the hand and make a fluted mark in the clay.
