The terrific taper tool!

Good taper tool. It is sharp so it does not chip the cedar arrow which is important. This taper tool is lightweight and compact. All in all, this tool is very good!

Needed something to keep in my field gear. Just for the rare occasion I need to taper a shaft or two. The plus side is, this tool is very light in weight. Consequently its light in construction as well. My first one broke by having the blades twist out with its first use. However 3 rivers C.Service was outstanding in taking care of the issue!

    Using the taper tool is great for a beginner like me. Target points are staying on much better now. Having the proper taper makes a big difference. If you don't have a taper tool you need one, trust me!

        Comments about Traditional Only® Taper Tool:

        I was given some untapered arrows by a friend. This product made quick work of the tapering process. It paired nicely with the steel field points and gave a perfect taper that almost needed no glue. Just two points to remember:
        This product only cuts tapers in one size of arrow; if you use different size arrows, you will have to buy one for each size.
        The tip taper is marked with an 11, follow the shape imprinted on the tool, the 11 does not mean an eleven degree taper.

          Cuts perfect on cedar shafts. I have read some reviews that it didn't work as well on hardwood shafts but I did some oak and it worked like a charm.

            this is the first time I used and tapered wood/cedar arrows, it works fine I even use it to trim off hardened hot melt glue to reglue point. on one barrel of the tool it has an 11 marked on it thinking this was the 11 degree side, it is not it is the 5 degree side. so far so good.

                  puts an excellent taper for nocks and points. cuts clean without the adjustments required by more expensive models. Disposable, but inexpensive enough to buy a few. If you're only doing a few dozen arrows, this is just right.

                  Service and delivery comments:

                  Great service, as always, from 3rivers.

                    Just learning wood arrow making. Only making a small amount of arrows, so this fit the bill, cost wise, and is just right for the task. If i were , or maybe later going to make a larger number of arrows, i will probably get the
