Frequently Asked Questions
What is this set of lathe blades for?
It is used with wood lathes with tool holders for the operations indicated in the product title.
The choice of the specific model depends on the number of pieces and material (HSS, Carbon). Compatible with standard wood lathes.
What steel are the blades made of?
These blades are made of HSS steel.
HSS resists temperatures up to 600 °C and is suitable for most woods and materials. Carbon Steel is cheaper but with a shorter lifespan, suitable for hobby use and softwoods.
How many pieces does the set contain?
The number of pieces is indicated in the title (e.g. "5 pieces", "6 pieces", "8 pieces").
Starter sets (4-5 pieces) for beginners, professional sets (6-8 pieces) for complete machining with gouges, flat chisels, scrapers, and parting blades.
Do they need to be sharpened periodically?
Yes, lathe blades need to be sharpened regularly to maintain a clean cut. The frequency depends on the intensity of use and the material being worked.
For HSS blades, sharpening is recommended every 8-15 hours of actual work. Krollit provides dedicated Bernardo sharpeners (BSG, DG series) to maintain the correct angle of the cutting edges.
How should they be stored correctly?
Store in a dedicated drawer or mat with individual protection, lightly oiled to prevent oxidation. Avoid contact between cutting edges.
Surface oxidation reduces cutting quality and accelerates wear. Clean after each use and apply a protective film (machine oil or WD-40). Store in a dry place, away from heat sources.
