Hamlet Rolled Edge Skews are a flat skew but have a rolled edge (curved) for ultimate control on the tool rest without drag.
The real advantage of the rolled edge skew shows when you’re rolling beads, there are no corners to pivot on. Or when you have a tool rest with the various damage that happens over time. With the Hamlet rolled edge skews you will find that you can glide over these imperfections without getting caught up.
The HCT105 has a gentle round edge and is less rounded than it's HCT105R variant which I also have in stock.
Hamlet skews are supplied with Beech handles.
Made from M2 grade high speed steel (HSS) to keep that cutting edge longer.
Please note that this tool has a factory edge and needs to be sharpened correctly to your specification before being used.

For years I have been shopping online for tools only to find a single grainy far away photo that does not show the tools for what they are. I have decided to add more images of this product to make your choice easier.
