A deep
Straight Undercutter tool designed by Chris Pye and made in the UK by Ashley Iles.
Chris Pye designed the undercutter tools to tidy up deep recesses (such as undercutting leaves) after the bulk of the wood has been removed.
Ashley Iles hand-forge a set of 3 tools from high carbon O1 steel, consisting of:
- the deep straight tool pictured which bends forward at an angle of approximately 60 degrees;
- one which bends to the left at the forward crank and
- one that bends to the right.
The straight tool is supplied with a pale-coloured hardwood handle so it can be picked out from the red-coloured hardwood handled left and right cranked tools.
Each of 3 the tools are available separately and as a set.
