      How This Tool Is Built

      We start with the sharpest edge, and we don't stop there. Vanquish vibration, say adios to constant resharpening, and let wispy shavings fly. Delivering superior performance at your lathe drives our manufacturing. 

      We’ve worked with M42 high speed steel for 4 decades, and it’s uniquely suited to woodturning. You’ll grind less - a cobalt additive provides unparalleled edge holding. And the steel produces a finer, sharper edge for clean cuts. M42 is a win-win: less grinding and smoother cuts. 

      Our carefully sourced M42 starts as solid stock and is precision machined (not formed) with a unique round tang for unmatched strength. Every gouge sports a distinctive flute polish. This boosts the razor edge and provides efficient chip flow. Learn more about M42 HSS here.

      Rigorous and detailed sums up our manufacturing. Each tool’s vibration-demolishing round tang has a diameter so precise you’ll hear a ‘pop’ when you pull it out of the handle. And every tool leaves our factory razor sharp and backed by a 100% lifetime guarantee. Built to last!

      Rest assured our aluminum handles feel as great as they look. Perfectly weighted for balance and maneuverability, and designed to fit your hand. You’ll forget the handle is even there, in the best way possible. Two set screws secure your tool into the handle and allow removal for sharpening.

      From flute polish to handle knurling, we’re not cutting corners. Whether you’re just starting out, or have been turning for decades, it’s an honor to serve you with quality tools. Learn more about our story here

      Perfect

      The sharpness of this tool out of the plastic container is the best in the industry. The balance of the handle allows for deep cuts in cleaning out the middle of the bowl . I own 10 different carter and sons tools with 10 more on my list. Well worth the money .

      Sharp and long lasting

      I’ve worked my way up on the lathe tools, from regular steel, to HSS, to carbide cutters, and now to this 5/8 gouge. I must say that this steel really holds up and lasts a long time. I’m guessing I would sharpen my HSS tools nearly 10x as much to do the same work. This tool came extremely sharp, and ready to use. I fear having to resharpen it, but I recently created a setup with CBN that should do that easily and perfectly. Great tool. I feel this tool creates a better cut and less tear out than even my carbide cutters. Still getting my skills down, but this is a really great step up from regular HSS. Thanks.
