Small Detail Skew (1/2″) – Handled

$ 99.00

 

Our small skew is made of premium high speed steel and measures 1/2” by 1/4″. The edge is beveled 20 degrees and has been hollow ground on an 8” diameter wheel before honing to a razor sharp edge.  The cutting edge of the gouge has been ground to a gentle 1” radius.  We consulted with noted turner Matt Monaco on the profile of this grind.  The radius of the profile has a small return at the top, adding versatility for cutting beads and adding details.

The lower edges of the gouge have a generous radius to help rolling the gouge to make beads and coves.  The top edges also have a small radius.  The premium hard maple handle has a durable polyurethane finish and stainless steel ferrule.  Also available unhandled.
