Kilian Tools and Nanograin Carbide Cutters

Canadian woodturners Don Thur and Russ Lacombe collaborated to create a group of Kilian Tools and Nanograin Carbide Cutters to allow a wider range of the woodturning community to access a superior quality tool at a very reasonable cost. There will be no retail network in which to purchase our tools; they will only be available by purchase through this website or direct contact. All will be sold unhandled but we do recommend two handle makers, both woodturners as we: Doug Thompson @ www.thompsonlathetools.com or Lionel Bédard @ www.belgreenwood.com
