58B2507 - 1" Round-Nose Scraper
This good-quality round-nose scraper represents excellent value. Milled from 6542 high-speed steel (an alloy similar to M2) and hardened to Rc60-62, it comes sharpened ready for use (though it benefits from burnishing a hook).
Used in face-plate work, the scraper is made from 1/4" bar to resist chatter. For use on bowls, it will remove material quickly or take tissue-thin finishing cuts. It measures about 22" overall with a substantial 16" long ash handle that is comfortable in the hand, allows excellent control, and provides significant leverage during heavy work.
Though this tool is ideal for the budget-conscious beginner, experienced turners will find it useful for experimenting with different grinds.
