The Rook – Premium Gentle Radius Drawknife - Wood Tamer × Strongway Tools
The Rook. Traditional craftsmanship, a gentle curve and a distinctly Wood Tamer personality.
PRODUCT INFO
Meet The Rook. Dark, distinctive and beautifully hand-forged. A traditional drawknife with a gentle radius and a distinctly Wood Tamer personality.
We've been working closely with Strongway Tools to develop a range of premium carving tools that combine their traditional forging skills with our own ideas about design, functionality and finishing.
The Rook is one of the latest additions to that range, and we're rather pleased with how it's turned out.
Based on Strongway's proven angled-blade drawknife design, The Rook features a gently radiused cutting edge, making it particularly useful for shaping curved surfaces while still being versatile enough for general woodworking.
We've given it our own character with beautifully contoured handles wrapped in premium-quality black leather, decorative hammered metal collars and a textured forged finish that contrasts with the polished cutting bevel.
The leather wrapping isn't just about appearance. It provides a comfortable, tactile gripping surface and adds a lovely finishing touch to the tool.
And, of course, it wouldn't be a premium Wood Tamer tool without a custom black leather sheath finished with our signature blue stitching.
The gentle radius makes The Rook a particularly useful tool for spoon carvers and green woodworkers. It's ideal for roughing out spoon blanks, shaping wooden handles, working on furniture components and removing material efficiently before moving on to finer carving tools.
Hand-forged in Ukraine by Strongway Tools, The Rook is designed to be a hardworking addition to your toolkit. It also happens to be rather lovely to look at.
