The Badger #5 Hunter tool was designed for the box makers and the turners who like to work on smaller but deep vessels. The #5 tool features a 5/8″ shank tapering down to a 3/8 cutter so you can extend further over the rest without vibration and chatter, enabling the turner to smooth out those deep vessels and boxes. The accessories for the #5 tool are the same components for the #3 Hunter Tools.
The handled Badger Straight tool is provided with a 17” wood handle and has a shaft projection of 8”. Without a handle, the overall length of the tool is 11”. If you are buying the shaft only to use with your own handle, we recommend a 17” handle with about 3” of the shaft epoxied into the handle.
