Bahco 625 Carbide Edged Pocket Scraper

I bought this to aid scraping old wax off my new house’s kitchen worktops. Previous owner had rented it the house and so worktops in a real state. It was a real labour of love to get them back looking great but this tool really helped cut down the workload as I removed many layers of old hard wax oil, dirt and grime. Without it I would have given up. £20 quid seemed a lot for a scraper to me but I gave it a go and I think it is worth its weight in gold. Lovely soft grips made it easier to use snd out a bit of elbow grease in without causing callouses. Love this little tool. It has pride of place hanging up in my shed.

This has saved me so much hard work, you often buy things that you hope will do what they say, this is a marvellous little tool

Brilliant piece of kit. Works just like a cabinet scraper on wood but doesn’t appear to have a hooked blade so much more robust and the edge long lasting.

Scraped well and I was happy with the overall result. However, I still felt the need to use stripper to finish it off. Could be my inadequacies rather than the product.

I don't normally write reviews, but this product blew me away. I've spent the past weeks laboriously stripping paint and wallpaper from walls in my own home and at a friend's place. It has been tiring and awful, especially with the heat, and has taken me such a long time to make even the slightest progress. I tried standard scrapers and stanley blade ones, but the blades became dull so quickly I was going through an unreasonable number of blades or working with dull blades so my efforts resulted in chipping the plaster more than removing the paint. On top of that, a lot of effort was required for each area and I ended up spraining my hand and developing callouses. Before long I started to look for other items... scoring tools, solutions... I tried them all with very little success. Solutions were messy to apply, had long waiting times or were just too expensive for the large areas I needed to strip. The worst ones barely seemed to make a difference. I searched online and came across this. The reviews seemed too good to be to true, but I had no other options and decided to give it a try. It was more than I would usually spend, but at this stage I knew it would be cheaper overall than constantly buying more blades/stripping solutions, if it lived up to expectations. Came through my door a few hours ago and I couldn't wait to try it. Straight out the box it was bigger than a lot of the other scrapers, but the ergonomic handle and extra grip knob made it easy to handle and direct. I took it to a patch I had been working on and scraped it down; with just a bit of effort a ribbon of paint came away from the wall. It was like cutting through butter! I was ECSTATIC. I had to try more... I ended up finishing stripping a whole alcove because it was so easy. Even when there wasn't an edge to scrape from, dragging the scraper on the paint a few times would reveal the plaster below with startling efficiency. Furthermore, there was minimal damage to the plaster below - with other scrapers there were chips and notches everywhere, whilst here there was only some sparse damage (which may well have been due to my own eagerness/haste). Best of all - my hand did not ache afterwards, I felt like I could go on for hours! The blade is extremely resilient and sharp and the handle has a great comfortable design making it a formidable tool. Cannot recommend enough.

Absolute must for paint or varnish removal. Very happy with the results this tool gives, it's like using a plane, removed all the varnish down to wood with ease.

What a great tool - very satisfying to strip the wooden worktop with and remove marks.
