Glaser Hitec Tools, were originally engineered by renowned woodturner innovator and toolmaker,
Mr. Jerry Glaser.

Glaser tools are a complete departure from traditional woodturning tools. They don't just look different. They ARE different.

The combination of high-vanadium steel with vibration absorbing shot-filled anodized aluminum handles produces a tool with superior edge-holding capacity that is less fatiguing to use. The durability of their cutting edges, the indestructible handles and other special features, make them the best woodturning tool in the market today.

Sam Maloof on Jerry Glaser, woodturner...
“Jerry’s work was as good as anyone else around at the time. If he had stayed with woodturning, he would have gone all the way. He made a decision to go a different direction so we would have all the good tools to work with.”
