Scrapers are not really used for cutting but have an edge with a burr similar to that on a [[Card Scrapers|card scraper]]. Instead of removing a lot of wood you can use this tool for delicate finishing touches. Read more about this tool [http://www.docgreenwoodturner.com/scrapers1.html here (Doc Green)].
We have one round nose scraper to start with.
