Slate Rippers

Slate Rippers from The New England Slate Company are die-forged in one piece from high-grade carbon steel. A form fitting handle with finger grips prevents hand-slip. The finely ground and polished blade is spring tempered for optimal strength and maximum flexibility. If you are unfamiliar with how to use a ripper check out our "How To..." page.
