TECHNIQUE® ASIC HANDLE Oval

Gain close-in cutting sensitivity, fluid rotational guidance, and palm-contour comfort for precision hand engraving and diamond setting. The TECHNIQUE® Oval Graver Handle (#18454) is manufactured in France from sustainably sourced, PEFC-certified European beech hardwood. Featuring a compact 34 mm profile with a distinct elliptical oval crown, this handle is shaped to fit the natural contours of the fingers and palm.

Unlike completely spherical ball handles, the oval architecture provides tactile angular registration—allowing the engraver to feel the blade's rotational plane without looking down. Its shortened 34 mm span positions the hand close to the bench pin or engraving ball vise, maximizing leverage, control, and agility when cutting micro-scrolls or bright-cutting stone seats. Reinforced with a solid machined brass ferrule collar, this handle resists splitting when seating traditional tang-style steel gravers.

Why Choose the TECHNIQUE® 34mm Oval Graver Handle

• Ergonomic 34 mm Oval Profile: The elliptical oval crown nestles comfortably in the palm heel, giving you instinctive tactile awareness of the tool's rotational orientation during delicate cuts.

• Close-in Fingertip Leverage: The compact 34 mm body keeps fingertips close to the cutting tip, increasing sensitivity and control when shaping intricate letters or setting tiny pavé stones.

• PEFC-Certified French Beech Hardwood: Sourced from responsibly managed French forests, fine-grained European beech offers high shock dampening, split resistance, and a splinter-free tactile finish.

• Machined Solid Brass Ferrule: Heavy-duty brass collar encases the nose, reinforcing the grain against radial pressure and preventing splits when driving in tapered tool tangs.
