Shop Lee Valley Veritas Concave Spokeshave

Our concave spokeshave will quickly become a favorite as it is so easy to use. Designed for smooth, effective shaping, it is popular with chair and paddle makers; it is the first choice for a wide range of jobs from small spindles to large oars. The 1/8″ thick blade, machined lever cap, and blade bed achieve chatterfree cutting in virtually all conditions.

The ductile cast iron body is fitted with hardwood handles, shaped for comfort and control. The toe serves as a thumb rest, allowing the user to choke up on the body to attain exceptional control for fine work. Twin adjustment wheels quickly and accurately control cut depth and skew, and shims let you adjust the mouth opening as needed.

The spokeshave has a 45° bed angle, a sole radius of 1 5/16″, and a 1 1/2″ wide PM-V11 tool steel blade. Measures 10 1/2″ long overall and weighs about 12 oz.

We also offer flat and round spokeshaves, and all three styles are available in a set that includes our specially designed woven polyester tool roll.

For those who cannot resist the temptation to customize their tools, we offer a kit that allows you to make custom handles.
