Skewchigouge

Designed in England by professional turner Allan Beecham, this tool gives the clean finish from a skew chisel with the ease of using a gouge. The nasty catches associated with a skew chisel are kept to an absolute minimum. This tool is great for rolling beads and cutting coves on spindle work. The "Skewchigouge" is sharpened using a fine diamond hone on the top of the bevel of the tool. The blade is 7-1/2" long and is fitted with an 8-1/2" handle.
