The Spindle Gouge
How to Sharpen a Spindle Gouge
Comparing Tool Steels
Comments On Mar 24, 2022:This is the first high quality gouge I have purchased. Prior to this I was using the Hurricane gouges with mixed results of retaining an edge. I am glad I was able to upgrade to this product. The gouge comes with a basic profile and needs to be sharpened prior to first use. This allows you to grind the bevel to your liking. So far I have only sharpened the one edge and left the factory edge on the other end. The gouge holds an edge very well and has made turning easier than my other gouges. I also purchased a Oneway handle to use with this gouge. Once I get more time to work at the lathe I plan to grind the other end to a detail gouge bevel. All-in-all this is a wonderful upgrade.
