The Robert Sorby company goes back to the city
of Sheffield, England. The business is said to
have grown from a small workshop in the center
of Sheffield into the company it is today. The
Sorby story goes back to the 1600s and can be
read in entirety on the website. Today the Sorby
company is a large hand tool manufacturing group
and supplies tools to woodworkers and hobbyists
from all over the world.
Sorby has a complete line of woodcarving tools,
woodturning tools and specialty
chisels. Sorby
woodcarving tools have many features making them
better than the competition such as special alloy
steel for edge tool manufacture, excellent balance
due to thinner blade sections, a stringent heat
treatment process to ensure edge retention, and
edges that are polished razor sharp.
Sorby woodturning tools have features making
them excellent as well. They carry only the best
in scrapers, shear scrapers, hollowing tools,
bead forming and ring cutting tools, sharpening
tools, thread cutting systems, skew chisels,
parting tools, tools for spiralling and texturing
and more. All of their woodturning tools are
produced in their own factory. They do not come
from second-hand sources. They are produced specifically
for the craft by people who understand the craft
and the needs from the tools. They individually
test each product before it leaves the factory
to ensure you get only the best.
All tools have a guarantee and contain innovative
design and durable construction. You will find
that Sorby cares about their product quality
