Of the two hollowing cutters, the one with the rounded end is designed for general roughing out and will create a flowing curve as in the bottom of a vessel. The more pointed cutter is for fast material removal and also produces a crisp corner in a box. The scraper features a rounded section for inside curves and a flat section for outside curves. 3/4" half-flat shank is in permanent contact with the tool rest and so minimizes the impact of rotational forces. Hollowing tips are fitted to a swivelling clamp. Swivelling clamp allows for straight hollowing and undercutting under a rim. One tip is rounded to create a flowing shape like bowls. Second included tip is pointed for squarer shapes like boxes. Second end of each HSS tip is left plain for the turner to custom shape.Also includes a scraper blade for finishing. Scraper has three different working faces making it a round scraper, a half-round scraper and a square scraper all rolled into one. Scraper can be used on the half-round shank for shear scraping. All three tips/cutters are HSS and sharpened with a diamond hone on the top.Includes hex wrench and hex-head bolts.Replacement cutters available from Rockler. Separate beading, coving, and recess cutters (also called dovetail cutters) available separately from Rockler. | | | Product Details: | | | Average Customer Rating:

Absolutely the BestSep 26, 2009
By G. A. Wegman
"Buz's Woodcraft"
I own two of the multi-Tip Scrapers. Having two makes it easier to do hollow cutting without making adjustments to the angle of the cutting blade while cutting. They are easy to use, and do exactly what they are made for. Sorby tools have a long history of using top quality steel in their tools. Don't waste your money on cheap Chinese tools. You will not be disappointed in this tool.

Wow this is fun. It's an amazing tool that's easy to use.Jul 19, 2010
By WoodHog New user review.
A very high quality strong tool precisely made that a beginner can easily use with proper set up and technique.
I found that hollowing a 8" diameter hard maple bowl 2" -- 2 1/2" deep was easier and safer than expected.
The RS200KT with scraper tips is amazing with a few minutes practice.
