: shaping
: the paddle was a sureform,kind of a cross between a plane and a rasp.It made
: it easy to make the gradual contour changes(fairing) without gouging .When
: I was finished with that tool it left a reasonably smooth surface that

: Hope you find some open water soon.

I like SureForms to. I used it a bit, especially for easing blade edges.

Your report on your paddle was great. I guess if I am not out there myself the next best thing is to hear about other paddler's experience.
