Boxwood Spokeshave



One of my pride and joy's of my shop is this beautiful Boxwood spokeshave that a friend of mine gave me. He is Russ Filbeck, and a master chair builder. During one of my visits to his shop he presented me with this beautifully hand made spoke shave. Russ makes these lovely spokeshaves and they are outfitted with a Hock iron and the grip is hand shaped by Russ. It's works beautifully too.

Hey thanks Lew, it is a joy to use, once I found the sweet spot on this tool. I must admit it took a bit of going through some scrap before I got comfortable with it, but it has turned out to be a valuable asset to the shop.
