  1. Simply the Best

    Posted by Pat Miller on Oct 22nd 2017

    Dave's design, the M42 steel and the smooth, polished flutes produce a gouge that that is unsurpassed in clean, long lasting cutting. Whether it's a set of bowls or an intricate art piece D-Way tools always produce. No better tool at any price.


  2. Best you can buy.

    Posted by Steve Lazarus on Jul 16th 2017

    D-WAY (Dave Schweitzer) sells the best woodturning tools on the market. If you enjoy wasting your time, search the world for a better tool.


  3. Great Tool, Great Value

    Posted by Frank on Apr 29th 2017

    Ordered this first tool from D-Way and was blown away by the difference these tools make. Since I got this bowl gouge I've ordered four more of these tools


  4. The best.

    Posted by Zach LaPerriere on Nov 7th 2016

    I just love Dave's gouges. I recently started using one of these ground to 35° for finish cuts. Combined with a steep shear cut, the finish is amazing, even on the soft woods I turn here in Alaska.

    Half of the secret is great steel, and the other half is the very smooth polishing on the flute that allows such a clean cutting edge.

    I now say that over the life of this tool I will more than likely save the purchase price of this tool in sandpaper—not to mention a heck of a lot of sanding.

    I love them.


  5. Go To Gouge

    Posted by Mark Killian on Oct 11th 2016

    Purchased this tool based on prior purchase of D-way beading tools and I'm glad I did. They hold an edge like no other bowl gouge I have, and I have 6 others 3 of which are sized 1/2". Cut smoothly with each pass and handle easily. Like it to the point that it has become one of my 1st . line tools. Plan on getting others.


  6. Amazing quality and quick service

    Posted by E.F. on Oct 1st 2016

    This was my first purchase from D-way. I was extremely happy with the quality of the product, how quickly it was shipped and how well it was all packaged for shipping. I will be getting more from them accordingly!


  7. Best Gouges for Bowl Work

    Posted by Dave on Jul 11th 2016

    I use this gouge for all my bowl turning. Keeps an edge longer than any other gouge I have ever used. The quality of the tool is exceptional.


  8. Great tool for all of your bowl needs!

    Posted by Unknown on Jul 5th 2016

    I use this gouge for 90% of my turning. Great for aggressive cuts for rough work, but also delicate finish cuts. The quality of the tool really shows.


  9. Outstanding!

    Posted by Mike D on Mar 8th 2016

    I received my new bowl gouge 2 days after ordering, opened it a few minutes after delivery and roughed out a bowl. Super sharp and perfect running. They arrive sharp, very sharp. Recommended!


  10. Excellent Quality and Value

    Posted by Tony B. - New York on Jan 5th 2016

    I purchased the 1/2" bowl gouge, 16" handle, quick knob and both the 80 and 180 CBN wheels . . . all outstanding stuff . . . very happy with this purchase. Best of all, they're made in the U.S.A. I will definitely buy more tools here.
