Why buy?
All tools come with a carbide cutter and hex key. These cutters retain their edge with no need for regular resharpening. When one edge does dull, simply flip the cutter and finally replace when needed. A range of optional cutters and replacement cutters are available too.
Easy to use
All Easy Wood Tools are held flat to the tool rest and parallel to the floor making them much easier to use than traditional tools.
Never sharpen again!
The premium grade carbide tipped cutters last at least ten times longer than HSS (High Speed Steel) before dulling. Meaning you can turn time and time again, with no need to sharpen.
Replace your cutters
When your edge finally dulls, simply replace it. All tool shafts are engraved with the corresponding engraved cutter number to make replacing cutters simple. See the range of cutters
Quality from end to tip
All carbide cutters feature the best grade carbide for lasting sharpness and a precision grind for a smooth and optimum edge for your turning.

Offering increased reach and versatility over the Easy Start range, it is a reliable go‑to tool for turners looking to tackle a broader range of work with confidence.
