Ashley Iles Twybil

£66.00

£55.00 excl. VAT
2 in stock
usually ships same day
AI/T
 

Removes the waste bridge of wood between two drilled holes in round ended mortices, typically in cleft gates. After the holes are drilled at either end of the mortice, the 'beak' end of the twybil is used to lever out the short grained bridge of wood between the two holes, then the tool is reversed to clean up the sides of the mortice.  More of a knife than a chisel.

Product Description

Delightful traditional tool that quickly removes wood from round ended mortices.  Also called a morticing knife

 


Product Specification

Overall length of iron 10.25", 6" beech handle with brass ferrule

Additional notes

We asked Ashley Iles to make us this twybil because no-one else was making twybils that we thought worked well enough.

WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALSO GETTING OUR LEATHER SHEATH TO PROTECT YOU AND THE TOOL WHEN NOT IN USE.
