Available in Concave or Convex profiles, they are particularly well suited to furniture making, chair making, stair work and other projects where smooth, accurate curves need to be shaped by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach spokeshave is manufactured from tough spheroidal graphite\/malleable iron, with carefully finished and polished surfaces for a comfortable feel in the hand. Their weight and balance help the tool sit firmly against the timber, allowing a smooth stroking action while the fine adjustment gives you precise control over the depth of cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy You'll Choose It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in Concave or Convex profiles for different curved shaping tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine adjustment provides precise control over the depth of cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced 425g body sits firmly against the timber for controlled shaping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from tough spheroidal graphite\/malleable iron for long-term workshop use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished and polished surfaces provide a comfortable grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for furniture making, curved joinery, stair components and detailed shaping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement cutters are available separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConcave Spokeshave – No. 550\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Clifton Concave Spokeshave is designed for shaping convex timber surfaces. It can be used in place of a drawknife when chamfering square timber, but its fine control makes it particularly useful for furniture making and detailed curved work. It is well suited to shaping cabriole legs and blending curved surfaces on components such as posts and stair rails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConvex Spokeshave – No. 500\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Clifton Convex Spokeshave is the counterpart to the Concave model and is designed for working on concave or recessed timber surfaces. Its curved sole allows the cutter to reach into areas that cannot be effectively shaped with a flat or concave spokeshave, making it an important tool for complex curved work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFine Control Over Every Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of a firmly seated body and fine blade adjustment allows you to make small changes to the depth of cut.
