Overview

Designed for efficiently shear scraping the exterior of your next bowl to remove imperfections and refine the surface. The long grind, with a convex surface, helps make contact with the exterior of the bowl. 

What makes a 5-star shear shaper?

  • 5/8” parabolic bowl gouge 
  • Shipped sharp with the grind found at Mahoney’s lathe (easily duplicated using a Wolverine jig)

  • Superior M42 high speed steel with a 10% cobalt content, for unparalleled edge holding 
  • M42 HSS' unique durability and razor edge mean less grinding and cleaner cuts
  • Unmatched flute polish boosts the razor edge and provides efficient chip flow
  • Put comfort and control first with an interchangeable aluminum handle
  • Handcrafted in the USA, and backed by a lifetime guarantee and hassle-free returns

    My first Carter and sons tool.

    This is the first tool I've purchased from Carter and sons.
    I'm blown away by the quality and craftsmanship that is apparent the second that you see it and pick it up.
    Outstanding tool .

    Great Bowl Gouge

    This is a beautiful bowl gouge, it came very sharp and ready to use. I have two other tools from Carter and Sons and I love them both.

    I love C&S tools

    I think this is my 5th tool from these excellent folks. I love their steel. I bought the Mahoney Parabolic Shear Shaper because I find parabolic fluted gouges easier to sharpen than a vee. I also prefer Stuart Batty's 40/40 and Richard Raffan's asymmetrical grinds to the Mahoney but it's easily changed. It's a good tool. I'm sure it will last a while. Happy turning!

    Great tool

    The tool itself is well balanced has a great edge on it right out of the box. The sharpening instructions that came with it are very good. They are very easy to follow. The tools ability to smooth out the ripples in or out of the bowls I make saves so much sanding time I will find it difficult to work with out it.
