Elbow Adze IronsThese are the same irons as the ones above, sold without the handles, to make them more affordable. A well made iron - properly curved and cupped, heat treated and sharpened - is the part that is outside the experience of most carvers. I am glad to provide that option, and I encourage it. Besides saving some money, there is just nothing like using a tool you've made yourself. They come with very good instructions (including a full scale pattern and siene twine for wrapping).Forged from round bars of the same high carbon steel I use for all my knives. They are each 6 inches long. | |||||

Bowl Adze |
(click picture to enlarge) |
| This adze was designed for a well renowned bowl maker, Rip Mann, who teaches classes along the US east coast.
His very clear instructional books are available on his
website. Virtually all his students purchase my bowl adze, shown here. However, I consider this a specialized adze for bowl making. For those interested in a more general use adze, I would suggest the elbow adzes (below). Besides being more versatile (at least, I think so) they are also quite a bit less expensive. I offer the bowl adze in two different weights. The light one is about 1# 12oz, the heavier about 2# 5oz. The lighter one's edge is a little narrower (about 2 1/2 inches, instead of 2 3/4 inches) and its handle is a bit thinner. They both have the same geometry (blade and handle length, and cutting angle) and are the same price. For people with smaller hands or whose wrists and forearms might appreciate a lighter tool, I recommend the lighter bowl adze. A heavier person with larger hands would probably prefer the heavier one. |
