This is the original bent-tip design that Bob Guge created decades ago. There are many imitations on the market today, but there is only one original.
The purpose of these tips is to create a ridged, stacked feather like appearance on a bird. Some of the other uses of these tips include:
-working around the face and beak area of a bird
-detailed contours on a fish's face
-feather splits and feather overlaps
-feather quills
Right handed carvers need right handed tips. Left handed carvers need left handed tips.
These burner tips are manufactured by Colwood. A Colwood handle is needed for the replaceable tips.
This tip is permanently attached to the handle.
