When to choose it
Choose this set for a first session where the supporting hand needs a physical guide. The separate guard has upright walls for the hand holding the work. Follow the maker's illustrated setup and keep the cutting path directed away from the supporting hand.
The handle uses an aluminum ferrule and comes with Essdee profiles 1 through 5. Compare the ten-profile kit if your main need is a wider range of cuts, or the recessed Style A refills if the lesson specifically calls for that tip.

Questions about this product
Can a left-handed carver use the guard?
Essdee describes the guard for left- or right-handed use. Arrange the work so the blade moves away from the supporting hand.
Does the kit include the recessed Style A cutter?
The manufacturer lists five numbered tips. The Style A refill is a separate product.
Can the hand guard take the place of a bench stop?
Use it according to the maker's setup and keep the block supported. A suitable stop can still help resist movement.
