Recessed Drawer pulls. Where??

Question

I need just qty four recessed wooden draw pulls. Oak or Pine. The type that is set into the drawer front and is almost flush with the drawer front face. Have to rout a recess and glue them into place.

I have spent hours on the 'net, came up with one manufacturer; [ my order was, understandably, too small]; one distributor [ must have an account - "Oh, just four, well let me recommend some retailers"]. Contacted three retailers, one = no stock, one reply unreadable, one no reply.

Can someone puleese give me a URL or an email address where I can buy wood recessed drawer pulls??

If you are going as far as routing a recess for the pull, why not go the rest of the way and route the whole pull?

Ok. Tell me how to rout the undercut where the fingers grip for thepull??

John Rumm · Answer

That is what the cutters I linked to below are designed to do. >> start of by making the general "dish" in the surface that will comprise the visible bit of the pull. Using the special cutter you then plunge it into the recess you have made and then route up toward the top of the drawer front, route along for the width of the pull before finally coming back down to the open recess before withdrawing the cutter. The bulbous bit on the end of the cutter is designed to make the undercut that your fingers grip. If you don't want the pull to be completely flush with the drawer front (or the drawer front is not thick enough) you can make the pull in another bit of wood that you then fix to or rebate into the front of the drawer.
