A better choice in my book is the Alan Lacer Skew. Big fat skew with square body and rounded cutting edge. Crown makes that too but I have yet to buy one. Still like my Crown 1" skew. Funny story, someone left a Eucalyptus log in my brother's front yard the other day. I had to pitch it on big trash day though because I don't like turning medicine.

Not. Need.<br /><br />(Beastly knows things about me. Things that I may have to kill him for. Of course, I know things about him too. And besides, life is much more interesting with Beastly in it. He's available, Ladies, just sayin).<br /><br />Speaking of things, Beastly, I just came in from turning a <i>huge</i> piece of soaking wet cottonwood. Why cottonwood? Well, just because. It really needs to dry before I can do much more with it - but it's going to be a very cool piece if I can pull it off.<br /><br />Also, bought a Crown skewchigouge from your employer the other day.
