great stuff Paul !!! thanks for sharing i have a few antique tenon cutters like the one you make i make bodies for whatever diameter i need and switch the knives

I suggest using steel from an old bicycle frame, its already curved and quality carbon steel alloy.

Thanks for this, very useful and looks like a good design.

You might finish the handles with the dowel cutter you already made.

Would heating the blade made it easier to shape it?

addendum to 'message to self '..."when hammering or executing precussive maintainance"

Muy bueno

Thank you
