    I picked it up at an Army Navy store for 99 cents and it works great. The teeth are very sharp and it rakes out the under fur very easily.

    Do you like it, and is it worth duplicating? It appears that it worked okay. What do you think? Also, I know nothing about scroll saw blades, is there one size to buy or is there a size you recommend?

    All scroll saw blades are the same length and are flexible. I like this tool as it does work well with all the skins I have used it on. This is a picture of how I use it on mask to remove the material.
