While hand stripping is an art, it’s not difficult to do. Tools come in a variety of types. X-Fine, Fine, Medium and Coarse. The shorter the hair the finer knife you will need. For thicker longer hair you will need to use a coarser knife. You will almost always need more than knife type. To allow you to get to the finer hair you will have to begin with a coarser knife. We suggest that you buy a medium and a fine. If your coat is overgrown and thicker you will need a coarse too. Around head face and neck an extra fine is recommended.

Easy to use, does a great job on my Cairn’s hard coat
Great value!
It does the trick! This knife easily handles heavy coats just as well as knives that are 10 times the cost. I love it!
