The Kunz chamfer spokeshave was delivered in a timely manner, well packaged and in perfect condition. It took only a few minutes to flatten the back of the blade and hone it on diamond plates to razor sharp. I find that the spokeshave easily allows the creation of a very consistent 45 degree chamfer cut to a fixed depth on yellow pine. I have previously used a block plane to cut chamfers, but always found some inconsistency in depth or angle, particularly noticeable where two chamfers on different edges meet. With this spokeshave, the junction of two such chamfers is crisp.
