I can't disagree with sticking to just hand tools. But doing very small areas like those found on the tips of Parkers where some of the lines have to be very short can be easily, I believe, done with a power cutter. With hand tools in this area, it takes some time to do to avoid runovers and get the right depth.
Brian can probably do the first cut quickly without power tools. I can't. I have to go very slow to avoid run overs and crooked lines. This is especially true on high figured grain stocks. Those hand tools can tend to follow the grain if you are not careful.
