Featuring a high-speed steel (HSS) blade, this spindle roughing gouge is designed for durability and performance, offering a usable length of 3-3/4 inches that fits perfectly into the hands of both experienced artisans and enthusiastic beginners alike. By choosing the unhandled version, you have the distinct advantage of creating a custom handle tailored to your specific preferences, ensuring comfort during extended use.
With HSS, you can expect superior sharpness retention, maintaining a keen edge approximately six times longer than conventional carbon steel tools. This unique characteristic not only guarantees longer intervals between sharpenings, but also benefits the tool's longevity, as it effectively resists damage from overheating and misuse often seen during grinding.
Engineered for fine detail work and smaller projects, this spindle roughing gouge proves particularly effective on smaller lathes, making it an essential addition to any turner’s toolkit. Crafted with an eye for professional quality, Robert Sorby is renowned for their commitment to excellence, giving you peace of mind as you create intricate designs with confidence.
