New to letterboxing and bewildered by the all of the carving block options? So many options! Don't fret—you can try them all with this carving block sampler. Includes one sheet of orange, grade A PZ Kut, one white grade B PZ Kut, one block of MasterCarve, and one block of Speedy-Carve. Try them all and pick what works best for you.
PZ Kut

The world-famous PK Kut! It's a tough, remarkably cheap product that many letterboxers love to carve. Of the choices below, the Tortuga recommends the white, grade 'B' PZ Kut since it's easier to cut than the orange, and takes ink better, but there are fans of orange PZ Kut as well.
PZ Kut Grade 'B' — White
PZ Kut Grade 'A' — Orange
PZ Kut Grade 'B' — Orange

Speedball Speedy-Carve Carving Blocks

Also known as the "pink stuff", Speedy Carve (formerally known as Speedy Stamp) is a popular but cheaper alternative to Mastercarve. The carving blocks are thinner, but this can often be an advantage for microboxes where space is slim, if you'll pardon the pun. =) Available in the following sizes:
3 in. x 4 in. block
4 in. x 6 in. block
6 in. x 12 in. block

Staedtler Mastercarve Tool Set

Speedball Lino Cutter Handle

If you already have the tips but want to upgrade the wooden handle that comes with the kits, you can buy this plastic handle separately.
