Its unique saucer-shaped carbide cutter enables shear cutting for superior surface finishes, especially on soft woods, while the rotatable cutter extends tool life. Designed for precision, durability, and ease of use, it’s the go-to finishing tool for serious woodturners. ## Description Now turning wood with the mid size Simple Shear Cutting Finisher is as simple as these 4 steps: 1. Position the tool rest as close to the work as possible so the carbide cutter is at the lathe center line.2. Place the tool on the tool rest with the tool shaft parallel with the floor. 3. Rotate the tool handle about its axis (similar to twisting a motorcycle throttle) approximately 35Β° in the direction you will be cutting.4. While securely holding the tool slowly plunge the carbide cutter into the work. As you begin to move the tool across the turning and your project takes shape, you will quickly discover how well these carbide tools cut and how simple it is to make beautiful turnings. It won’t be long until you are experiencing the true joy of woodturning that many thousands of fellow wood turners enjoy. The Simple Shear Cutting Finisher provides the very best surface finish possible with a carbide tipped wood turning tool. The reason for this is the saucer shaped carbide cutter. The round tool shaft allows the tool to be rotated about its axis so the cutter is presented to the work at an angle. This creates a shearing cut much like a conventional bowl or spindle gouge and leaves a superior surface finish compared to other wood turning tools that are held flat and make scraping cuts. Although this is a great benefit on all types of wood it is especially important when cutting soft wood such as spalted Maple. Flat topped carbide cutters can leave tear out when used on really soft wood. However, the saucer shaped carbide cutter used on the Simple Shear Cutting Finisher cleanly slices the soft fibers off the vessel due to the shear cutting action, similar to conventional bowl and spindle gouges. The result is a far superior surface finish. When the small area of this cutter you're using finally becomes dull, simply loosen the screw and rotate the cutter and you'll have a super sharp tool once again.

Not sure if it was really designed for it but it works. I haven’t used it as a finisher actually but feels like it would work well for that as well. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/39808427-mid-size-simple-shear-cutting-finisher-carbide-tipped-wood-turning](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/39808427-mid-size-simple-shear-cutting-finisher-carbide-tipped-wood-turning) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
