Great demo Colwin. Those “new” skews look great in use.

This is a skill i would like to learn.Your lathe machine is truly amazing with performance.

[@grenadillo1]

As always Colwin you make it look easy, great stuff.

Well I am a German and use these skews a long time. Absolutely love them but on our skews the Handels are a lot shorter so you have more control and can "feel"so the cut better.

Very nice explanation, I have to try it. The hazelnut bush in the garden is too high anyway.

What angle should i sharpen these chisels at ?

Hi Collin, after watching this video I purchased the 32mm skew which arrived today. Gave it a very brief hone and did a couple of test passes on a sycamore spindle offcut. After only 3 passes the steel at the edge has gone black and blue. Have you encountered this and is it possible that the steel has a problem. Finish on wood was great so definitely riding the bevel. Any advice welcome.

Hi Kev, I believe Colwin has answered you directly about this 😊

[@davidbriggs5778]

WOW!!! Really cool technique. The skew chisels seem to have a very short bevel - a function their thinness?

[@garylawrence7547]

It’s not so much which part of the skew cutting surface you use but rather exactly where you place the blade on the wood. If you’re too high on the wood you will just burnish the wood, to low and you get a bad catch. These guys never tell you that.

[@axminster]

Hi Gary, thanks for the feedback. We will see if we can incorporate this info into future woodturning videos

I'd rather have a skew with more meat on it for stability and vibration absorption.
