以推刀（graver）斜持 45°，用拇指推压向前切削，刀锋始终保持湿润避免黏屑。先练习直线再曲线，力度均匀方能得到干净一致的刻线。工件需牢固夹持防滑。

Hold the graver at ~45° and push forward with the thumb, keeping the tip lubricated to avoid clogging. Practice straight then curved lines; even pressure yields clean consistent cuts. Secure the workpiece firmly to prevent slipping. ---
