Thumbnail Filmstrip of #5 Hunter Badger Straight Tool Images
The #5 Hunter Tools are good for hollowing bowls and vessels into the end grain. This Straight Tool is made from 5/8" diameter steel and is used for initial hollowing of bowls and vessels.
Each tool uses a replaceable #3 Hunter Carbide cutter that measures 3/8" in diameter. The carbide cutter will last for up to 25-35 times longer than high speed steel before it needs replacing.
When the cutter starts to dull, loosen the screw and rotate it to a fresh edge. This can be done 4-5 times before replacing the cutter. During use the cutter is held at a 30° to 45° angle for best results.
Package Includes:
- #5 Hunter Badger Straight Tool with 17" Ash Handle
- #3 Hunter Carbide Cutter
- Torx Head Screw
- Torx Wrench
- Instructions
Without a handle, the overall length of the tool is 11”.
If you are buying the shaft only to use with your own handle, Hunter recommends a 17” handle with about 3” of the shaft epoxied into the handle.
