  1. Nice tool

    Posted by ED Jenks on Feb 10th 2020

    I'm a rookie at turning but am enjoying my new D-Way gouges. I especially like that I can make my own handles that fit my big hands.


  2. Excellent product

    Posted by dave on Nov 1st 2019

    Bought the handle and tool and they work together well, nice feel, well balanced. The cutting and scraping function is excellent, working with punky wood and getting clean cuts with little pull out.


  3. Polished Flutes

    Posted by Guy Mueller on Oct 15th 2019

    Holds a sharp edge.


  4. Simply better gouges!

    Posted by Unknown on Apr 14th 2019

    Dave's gouges are simply better than others that I have used. The steel seems to both take an hold a cleaner edge that other steel and they feel "soft". Dave tells me it it because they are tumble polished.

    If you are just starting out or replacing an existing gouge you will not go wrong with a D-Way tool,


  5. 1/2" bowl gouge

    Posted by Unknown on Mar 7th 2019

    As I have not used the other tool steel types I cannot say the M42 is the best but it will be very hard to beat it. Tool was sharp when it arrived just as advertised and cut better than my other bowl gouge by far. Kept its edge longer than other gouge , easy to sharpen. If I need another lathe tool the M42 steel is what I will get.


  6. quality product

    Posted by Unknown on Jan 17th 2019

    1/2 inch bowl gouge another outstanding product. This is my 5th D-Way turning tool and I am as pleased with it as the first one. The polish and finish and attention to detail in the making of this product is readily seen and felt as soon as you pick it up and use it. My goal is to have nothing but D-Way Tools in my shop


  7. 1/2 In. bowl gouge

    I have tried several other bowl gouges but I keep coming back to D-Way tools. Glenn


  8. Sharpe and ready to go to work

    Posted by Woody on Jun 22nd 2018

    Great shipping and packing. I'm buying this gouge to be used in a turning workshop the requires a different grind, so I purchased additional D-Way tools for the class. This way I can leave the gouge as grounded for the class instead of regrinding existing gouges. That saves me tool steel in the long run if I decide to keep the new grind.


  9. The best

    Posted by TL Goss on Apr 13th 2018

    It didnt take long to realize i had made less trips to the grinder, the steel holds an edge longer. I ordered the 16" handle and realy like the weight and balance. Without a doubt the best qualit tool i have in the shop.


  10. Best gouge available

    Posted by Jim McLain on Nov 10th 2017

    I have used several manufacturers 1/2 bowl gouges including Thompson, Oneway,Sorby and others and the d-way gouge is my favorite. It is ground with the best profile and the m42 holds an edge very well.
