It also has a masterflute parabolic profile (the only flute profile on the Glenn Lucas gouges) for easier sharpening and improved chip clearance. This tool will achieve a better finish than the ⅝” bowl gouge (GL4) but won’t reach the bottom interior of a bowl. The ½” bottom finishing bowl gouge (GL6) picks up where this tool cannot reach.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fine turning tool, featuring an M42 High Speed Steel blade, combines traditional handcrafting and forging skills with modern heat treatment to deliver the design and edge retention properties demanded by woodturners of today. M42 Stay Sharp tools set a new standard for quality and performance in woodturning tools.
