The New Revolution Gouge™ Series represents a major leap in woodturning tool design, offering unmatched rigidity, durability, and edge life through ultra-advanced manufacturing and lamination technology. Utilizing 15V steel, these gouges achieve up to seven times the edge life of traditional M2 and five times that of M42, while remaining tough enough for demanding overhangs. Key to their performance are replaceable tips, short flute lengths for additional rigidity, and an innovative beam shape that is 1/8” taller than wide—delivering both strength and control. The elimination of the traditional flute exit radius via a chip deflection plate further boosts rigidity and efficiency.
Each tool is shipped with Stuart Batty’s acclaimed grinds—such as the 40/40™ for Elliptical Bowl Gouges and 60/85™ for Bottom Bowl Gouges—ensuring optimal performance and finish, as confirmed by professional woodturners. Detailed educational resources, including videos on technique and sharpening, are freely available.
The series covers a broad range of gouge types and sizes, including the first-ever laminated 15V™ replaceable tip gouges, Spindle Roughing Gouges, and Elliptical Bowl Gouges. Distinctive features include vibration-free use, quick-change handles, and highly precise, corrosion-resistant bolsters for secure, trouble-free connections. These innovations set the Revolution Series apart from imitations, providing woodturners with exceptional value, performance, and reliability.
