For those turners we offer here a 1/2" Fingernail Spindle Gouge Blade from Sorby's selection of the more highly used unhandled tool blades.

A Collet Adapters may be required if used with the Sovereign System. Check your manual for the size collet required, if any. Blade has an overall length of approximately 8". England
