This bolt-on 1 inch (25 mm) vertical knife is one of our longest wearing opener. The high chrome cast tip has a double carbide insert that protects the bottom 2 inches (50 mm) of the tip.

Because of the near vertical approach this opener will pull harder than conventional knives however, it will also throw less soil and pull out fewer rocks. This knife is designed to fit a 47° shank with 1-3/4 inch (45 mm) bolt hole spacing.

The seed tube accepts 1-1/8 inch (28 mm) O.D. airhose. For 1-1/4 inch (31 mm) O.D. airhose use part number 047-VRT-1040.
