Circular spokeshaves have been around since Millers Falls patented their "cigar" shaped shave in the 1880's. These were popular for those tight inside curves encountered in chair seats and legs. The only rub was the fact that they could be fussy to sharpen properly and were sometimes difficult to finely adjust.
One of our favorite toolmakers came up with this design which is great looking, cuts well, is easily sharpened, and can be micro adjusted for the finest of cuts. Made with a 5/8 inch diameter brass body housing a 2 inch wide low angle A2 tool steel blade and capped with nicely turned maple handles.
The extra thick 5/32 in. blade is adjusted by means of matched pairs of set and cap screws which also permit rapid removal for sharpening. If you need a solution to shaping those tight inside curves, this is it! Length overall 10-1/2 inches. |
