Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do these differ from standard parting tools? A: These are much narrower and ground specifically to leave a flat-bottomed groove with perfectly vertical sidewalls for inlays.

Q: Can I use these for general parting? A: While they can cut, they are delicate tools. For general separation of projects, a standard 1/8" parting tool is recommended.
