No, this tool is designed exclusively for woodturning lathes.
The chisel arrives with a factory edge, but most woodturners prefer to hone it to their specific angle preference before first use.
The overall length is 410mm, including the handle.
While the brass ferrule is durable, the handle is permanently fitted to the tang. It is not designed for frequent removal or replacement.
It is engineered for both hard and soft woods, making it highly versatile for general spindle turning.
The blade is likely dull. Hone the edge using a diamond sharpening card or whetstone.
Ensure your hands are free of workshop dust and ensure the handle is clean; consider a light sanding of the wood handle if it has become polished over time.
To keep your Faithfull HSS Turning Chisel in optimal condition, store it in a dry, rack-mounted environment to prevent moisture buildup on the blade. Before your first use, check that the tool is sharpened to your preferred angle—typically 30 to 40 degrees for a skew.
