The Robert Sorby Turnmaster has combined three different profile cutters without a handle, the bare shank allows it to be fitted to a Sovereign handle, a shop made handle or jig. These are three commonly used cutters that will do a wide variety of turning jobs. Turners now have a choice of tungsten carbide, titanium nitride and high speed steel cutters.
The underneath side of the shaft is flat, giving a positive feel with the chisel. The head has three pre-set angles, making this flat underneath side critical as a reference.
Tungsten is the hardest of all three options from the Robert Sorby range. Many projects can be sharpened before the cutter needs replacing.
This set contains a round tip in tungsten carbide with an unhandled shaft.
