This tool holder is hard-to-find and much sought after for its pivot-rotation head. Very well made and thought to be Williams-Armstrong in origin.
A knurling tool is used along with a lathe to emboss the ends of metal tubes and shafts. The embossed grooves may act as hand grips for the user or as better traction for rubber or plastic covers.
The knurling tool itself consists of multiple rotary cutters which are held against the metal shaft as it turns on the lathe at a relatively slow speed (500 rpm on average).
Turning is a method by which cylindrical pieces of metal or wood are spun in place by a variable-speed electric motor.
As the piece spins, various cutting tools can be placed against it to remove material or cut shapes.
A knurling tool falls somewhere between an engraver and an embosser.
This knurling tool is of the highest quality, and is an excellent deal!
