Robust Tools 1/2" Bowl Gouge – Handled

Parabolic flutes give a great combination of strength and chip ejection. They are amenable to finger nail (Ellsworth or Irish) grinds, conventional bowl gouge grinds and the “40/40” grind.

This 1/2″ bowl gouge is a real work horse and a handy size for almost all bowl turning.  We use the American method of gouge measurement, so the shank is 1/2″

The handle is hard rock maple and turned for us in Pennsylvania. The ferrule is stainless steel
