Crown Oval Skew, 1-1/4 in. Many lathe tool rests can be rough, causing rectangular shaped skews to catch, jump, and create unwanted gouges on your workpiece. The Crown Oval Skew features a blade with no sharp corners, allowing it to move smoothly over the tool rest and transfer leverage to the cutting edge more efficiently. This design ensures clean cuts and leaves a mirror-like finish on your work. The skew has a 6-1/2" long high-speed steel blade paired with a 14" long hardwood handle, making the overall length approximately 20-1/2". Crafted in England, this tool combines quality materials with thoughtful design for superior performance. Model Number: 252W
