A scriber, marking needle or engraving needle is a tool made of steel, to mark a spot on a workpiece (tearing) and is usually used in the work preparation. For example, to mark dimension lines or drill holes, in all sorts of materials, steel, non-ferrous metals, wood or plastics. The front part of the scriber is hardened, which makes it particularly sharp and increases its service life. To get fine markings, the scriber on the hardened end is sharpened at an acute angle.

High humidity or touching the blades with your fingers (sweat) causes flash rust. Therefore, the blades should always be kept dry or rubbed with a drop of oil for storage. If such rust forms on the blade, it can be easily removed, with a slight ground.
