Craft and Utility Knives and Replacement Blades First, select a craft knife. Knives with retractable blades seem to be more popular than penciltype knives. Craft knife blades dull quickly, so change them frequently. Pencil-type knives require more time for changing blades than do retractable knives, so they are consequently less practical. How ever, penciltype knives are excellent when using a straightedge to etch tone . Lay a des k mat underneath the drawing to protect the desk w hen using a knife.
Tone-scrubbers are used to rub and press down the screen tone. They come in many shapes and sizes. Make sure you have one with a somewhat pointy tip for detailed areas of tone.
