Why Our Roughing Gouge Stands Out

• Wide U-Shaped Flute: Engineered for efficient chip flow, making roughing out fast and clean.

• Heavy-Duty Round Tang: Delivers superior strength and stability under load compared to flat tangs, ensuring safe, long-term use.

• M42 High Speed Steel: With 10% cobalt, this HSS blade holds a razor-sharp cutting edge longer than standard gouges, requiring less sharpening at the grinder.

• Precision Ground Bevel: Optimized for smooth bevel riding and controlled cutting on a tool rest—perfect for spindle turning, chair legs, table spindles, and other large spindlework.

• Comfortable Aluminum Handle: Interchangeable, lightweight, and balanced for excellent hand feel during extended turning sessions.

• Ready to Turn: Ships sharp and ready to use straight from our factory.
