HNT Gordon Spoke Shave - Flat Sole - Gidgee - Used to shape outside curves or large radius inside curves. Curved Sole Spoke Shave suited for smaller inside curves.
Unlike most spoke shaves, this tool easily cuts against the grain with little or no tearout due to the tight mouth and middle pitch (55 degree) bedding angle of the blade. In use, the tool is easily controlled because the blade/sole geometry helps the tool follow the contour of the work.
