What is the Veritas Flat Spokeshave designed to shape?
The flat spokeshave is designed for smooth, effective shaping of chair spindles, panel edges, paddles, tool handles and other shaping work
05P3373 - Veritas Flat Spokeshave, PM-V11

Our flat spokeshave will quickly become a favorite as it is so easy to use. Designed for smooth, effective shaping of chair spindles, panel edges, paddles and tool handles, or other shaping, it has a 1/8" thick blade, machined lever cap, and blade bed that achieve chatterfree cutting in virtually all conditions.
The ductile cast iron body is fitted with hardwood handles, shaped for comfort and control. The toe serves as a thumb rest, allowing the user to choke up on the body to attain exceptional control for fine work. Twin adjustment wheels quickly and accurately control cut depth and skew, and shims let you adjust the mouth opening as needed.
The spokeshave has a 2 1/8" wide PM-V11 tool steel blade, is 10 1/2" long overall, and weighs about 12 oz.
We also offer round and concave spokeshaves, and all three styles are available in a set that includes our specially designed woven polyester tool roll.
For those who cannot resist the temptation to customize their tools, we offer a kit that allows you to make custom handles.
