If you enjoy owning and using high quality handmade tools, this pair of Pearson Coarse and Fine right handed stripping knives is for you. This listing is for the pair as a set.

Featuring rosewood scales and brass hardware these are as beautiful as they are functional. Over 25 years later they remain nearly mint condition, with two small blemishes — shown in the photos — to bear witness to their age.

Pearson's Stripping Knives were created by Monty Pearson in 1970. He developed this specialized dog grooming tool, which is recognized for its effectiveness in stripping dog coats. The knives were produced in the United States, where Monty Pearson and his wife, Joella Pearson, co-owned and operated the business that manufactured these tools. Their innovation has made a significant impact in the field of dog grooming, and the knives continue to be utilized by groomers worldwide. Monty died in 2014 and Joella in 2017.

If you just need a knife, any knife, you can get one from China for a couple dollars. If you are a collector or simply someone who values quality and craftsmanship you might actually enjoy and cherish these fine (and coarse :-) knives for years to come.
