Most of our chisels are in stock and ready to post. At certain times, some chisels have to be made to order. You will always be given a posting date when purchased. This will always be within 3-5 working days. 

To see all my chisels in action and get plenty of tips on how to use them, view our YouTube channel by clicking on the link page at the top of the Menu (left hand side) of page. In our videos I show you how to get the best out of our carbide woodturning tools and use them safely. I also show you how to achieve as good a finish with a carbide tool as anyone can get with a traditional tool.... Plus lots more....and a few laughs along the way.

All our carbide chisels are individually hand made.  The handles are turned from carefully selected hardwood Beech. They are turned to my own design and style, sanded, sealed and given a wax finish making them pleasing to the eye.  But more importantly they are balanced to the weight of the bar, very functional and comfortable in use.  The bar is of bright steel which is ground and shaped to hold a carbide insert. This also allows for the bevel of the cutter to be used, which is why my tools can match any finish of any traditional tool, reducing time spent sanding.  The carbide inserts are more resistant to wear and hold a sharp edge for longer than HSS steel, giving you more time cutting and less time sharpening. There is a mis-leading belief that carbide tools are just scrapers and that torn grain is just a given. The truth of the matter is that carbide tools make terrible scrapers, as no burr can ever be risen on a carbide insert. Carbide inserts are designed to cut and this is what makes my tools unique in their ability to be used with the bevel controlling the cut. In fact, traditional Scrapers never actually scrape. A burr is raised on the edge and they cut. Wood should only ever be scraped to remove paint or rough the surface, for whatever reason. Neither of which are needed in woodturning. I highly recommend watching my videos, to see how to use all my carbide tools correctly, in the way I have designed them to be used and in no time you will be achieving cuts and finishes traditional tool users can only dream of. Don't ever be told you are doing something wrong because you are using a carbide tool. You will only be told that, by someone who doesn't now how to use them correctly. WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE. May the carbide force be with you. 

Happy turning!

As with all my chisels you will find there is much more versatility given a little time and practice to get to know your tools.

It has often been thought that a carbide cutter once it becomes dull can only be thrown away. This is not so.  A carbide cutter can be resharpened many times using a diamond file taking it back to a sharp edge. You will not achieve a factory edge, but you will extend the life of your cutters.

Replacement cutters are available for all my chisels on the Replacement Carbide Cutters page on the Menu.
