Woodsmith Pattern Froe
Riving or cleaving green wood normally used in conjunction with a cleaving break
Product Description
A longer handled froe, with a neat system to keep the handle fixed in place. A very useable froe, machined rather than forged with great control possible. This is the way forward.........
Product Specification
10" blade in high carbon steel '01', 20" beech handle

Gentle convex bevels

Additional notes
Specially made for The Woodsmith's Store. The biggest and best feature of this froe is the longer handle which is held in place with a specially engineered thick plate washer and a coach screw. This alleviates the problem of the handle coming loose when pushing through the workpiece in a cleaving break.
