When to choose it
Choose Style A for an introductory exercise that uses short shallow cuts. The maker gives the blade a recessed edge and side wings that limit depth. Use a stable bench stop and teach the learner to cut away from the hand holding the block.
The five identical tips fit compatible Essdee handles. They are useful when a group practices the same technique. For a larger clearing job or deeper V groove, choose the matching standard profile once the user can control the cut.

Questions about this product
Will the wings replace a block stop?
Keep the block supported at a stop. The wings help limit the cut but do not secure the workpiece.
Can I use these in place of a broad clearing gouge?
Choose a purpose-shaped clearing blade for broad areas. The Style A is designed for controlled shallow cuts.
Is Style A included in Essdee's numbered ten-tip assortment?
Essdee lists styles 1 to 10 in that set. Style A is a separate profile.
