My thought is that it would make one helluva grafting knife. I have a few in my drawer that are used for bud grafting. They are Victorinox and are beveled only on one side and absolutely flat on the other. This allows the grafter to cut down toward the bud and in and under the but to just past the bud about 1/8" and then cut straight in to that intersection and take out the bud "wedge" and put it in a similar cut out on the same species of plant that you are doing a bud graft on. I have used it numerous times to make one apple tree variety into MANY different varieties. Rule #1 on grafting is a razor sharp grafting knife.
