Simple Woodturning Tools Mid Size Shear Cutting Finisher - 3/8 Carbide Lathe Tool USA Made

About This Product

Woodturners, this Simple Shear Cutting Finisher is about to become your new favorite tool! The mid-size design with 3/8 inch round shaft provides the perfect balance of strength and maneuverability for various turning projects. What makes this tool special is the saucer-shaped carbide cutter that creates shearing cuts similar to traditional gouges but with the convenience of carbide - meaning no sharpening required! Just rotate the cutter 1/4 turn when needed to expose a fresh, sharp edge. The 5/16 inch round cutter allows you to adjust cutting aggressiveness simply by how much you roll the tool on the rest - more rotation gives you lighter cuts, less rotation provides more aggressive material removal. This tool works wonders on wood, epoxy resin, acrylic, and hybrid materials, leaving a superior surface finish that often requires less sanding. Made in the USA from premium stainless steel, this tool features a 9-inch overall length with 7-inch reach and 2-inch tang for secure handle mounting. The shearing action cleanly slices through wood fibers rather than tearing them, resulting in smoother surfaces especially on softer woods where flat carbide cutters might struggle. Whether you're turning bowls, pens, or other projects, this tool simplifies the process while delivering professional results. If you're tired of constant sharpening or want to improve your finish quality, this American-made carbide tool is definitely worth adding to your turning arsenal.
