Half-rounded drawknife (inshave) with curved blade and leather sheath

Quiet control in the grain

A half-moon of steel and ash that settles into the curve and listens.

At the shavehorse

A seat takes shape

Curved with intention

Flat tools fight a hollow. The Half-Rounded Drawknife (Inshave) slips into concave work and stays there, letting you read the wood instead of wrestle it. The 15 cm blade arrives keen, so shaping begins the moment you set hands on the ash handles.

Work that flows

When a bowl or chair seat starts to breathe, it’s because each pass is clean and sure. The forged 52100 edge holds long enough for real progress, while the leather sheath closes the day with the same care you brought to the cut. Fewer stops, more making.

For the hands that hollow

Woodworkers carving seats, bowls, and other concave forms who want a ready-to-use inshave with comfortable ash handles and a fitted leather sheath.

Bring it to the curve

Set the blade into the hollow and pull in smooth, overlapping strokes to refine chair seats or bowls with controlled removal.
