Bar Rail Profile Knives Create a Complete Finish

Craft a professional-grade bar top with the combined use of the Top and Bottom Bar Rail Profile Knives. Together, these profiles create a comfortable, stylish, and durable edge detail that enhances both the function and appearance of any bar setup. The top profile shapes a smooth, rounded resting surface, while the bottom profile adds depth and structural elegance to the rail system.

Cutting Sequence Tip:

Begin with the bottom profile using the W&H bottom knife. Flip the stock and switch to the top knife to complete the cut.

TIP: Use positioning guides to keep the angled cuts stable while running the top profile through the molder.
