The GRS C-Max #1 Onglette Carbide Graver is a precision, pre-shaped tungsten carbide graver designed for hand engraving, jewelry engraving, stone setting, fine detail work, and general metal engraving. The #1 Onglette profile measures approximately 1.8 mm and provides a versatile pointed cutting geometry for controlled lines, borders, decorative details, and precision metalwork. GRS developed C-Max carbide specifically for demanding engraving and stone-setting applications. The material combines hardness and toughness to provide a durable, fine cutting edge while helping reduce the breakage and edge-retention problems associated with conventional carbide gravers. The Onglette profile features angled sides that converge toward a sharp cutting point, making it particularly useful when you need controlled, precise cuts and the ability to vary line width through tool positioning. The pre-shaped geometry saves time compared with creating an Onglette profile from a square or round carbide blank.

The Onglette graver is valued for its pointed cutting geometry and versatility. By changing the angle and position of the graver during a cut, engravers can produce controlled lines and varying widths, making the Onglette useful for both detailed decorative work and functional metal cutting. The GRS C-Max #1 Onglette combines this versatile geometry with a specialized tungsten carbide material engineered for hand engraving and stone setting. C-Max Carbide Performance GRS C-Max was developed through extensive testing and feedback from professional metal engravers. The goal was to produce a carbide graver with a useful balance of hardness and toughness, allowing the tool to maintain a fine edge while being less prone to the breakage associated with some harder, more brittle carbide tools. The C-Max Onglette series is available in multiple sizes, allowing engravers to select the profile that best matches the required cut and level of detail. The #1 size provides a useful middle ground for fine engraving and stone-setting work.
