DRAW-KNIFE

A draw-knife is a carpenter's tool consisting of a usually curved blade with a handle at each end at right angles to it. In use the draw-knife is drawn towards the user to remove wood from a surface, similar to a plane but more controllable. Draw-knives were anciently used for roughly rounding timber prior to turning on a lathe, and are still used by craftsmen around the world.
