Lathe Adjustable Type Parting Cut Off Tool Holder 10mm Shank With 1/2" HSS Blade

I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

Came in well packaged. Once I cleaned it up I noticed several burrs on the adjustment mating surfaces that did not allow the two pieces to lock together square (poor quality control). I cleaned it up with a small file & file brush and mounted on my mini lathe then I put an edge on the tool. To my surprise it cut mild steel extremely well! Just be sure to run at a low RPM to avoid chatter. Would have given five stars if the unit was deburred prior to shipping.

This cut-off tool and holder are ideal, as is, or shaped and sharpened on a regular grinder to suit the need at hand. Fits perfectly on standard tool post, and the tool holder holds the cutter very firmly, and cuts cleanly.

Not very tough, ended up going a different route

Bluefox adjustable parting blade tool holder is the answer to one of my prayers. It is made for the 3/32 by 1/2 by 4 1/2 blade…it holds the blade firmly will not let the back end of the blade move or flex like other type blade holders….$40 is a bargain for this adjustable height blade holder……I just wish they made a adjustable 1/8 x 1/2 x 4 1/2 blade holder…maybe they will……..I now get perfect cuts for the projects I work on, no more scrap parts…I am well pleased with my purchase….

the 1/8" width cutter is too wide for some steel applications but the 3/32" can work at very slow feed for those jobs ( I have both size tools); both work well for aluminum and softer materials

Good for the money spent.

A very well made parting off tool, made from very good materials and set at an excellent price point, used a couple of times so far and had no issues with chatter 👍👍 A nice smooth transaction with very fast delivery, many thanks.

Great tool, already cut a bunch of stuff with it, the holder is top notch and comes nicely oiled so there's not even a little bit of rust

A well made tool,but the hight adjustment is a bit to coarse for lathe without hight adjustment.

works as well as i had hoped for seems to be good value
