Set of three thin Clifton scrapers in carbon steel, 0.015" thick. Clifton standard scrapers are 0.032" thick, so these thinner scrapers flex much more when taking off fine surface layers. A scraper gives a finer finish than a hand plane, and these suit instrument making and other intricate work.

Specific References
A card scraper is a thin steel plate that scrapes smooth surfaces, especially on difficult wood. It is sharpened in three steps: the edge is filed straight, honed smooth and then turned into a small burr with a burnisher. The burr is what cuts.
When the scraper stops making shavings, you can often turn the burr again with the burnisher. The guide shows it step by step.
