This is one tool I haven't used much but definitely would like to. A shaving horse would sure be nice, if I ever get around to that!
Here's the one I have used a bit, but mostly for peeling logs so far.
Austrian Drawknife - Lee Valley Tools
Another one I picked up on ebay for around $20 is this old C.E Jennings, a wee little guy with a 4'' blade. This one is considered to be an antique, made by a company that closed it's doors in the early 1900's I think.
To protect the edge (and me) I wrap the edge with a strip of hide.
Does anyone have any tips/tricks to share in using one of these? More drawknife pics are always welcome if you have any, thanks
