Hans Karlsson Medium Curved Gouge 55-45mm

£65.95

***currently out of stock ***

This is a medium gouge with curved blade. They have a hard wood handle and fit well in the hand for a pushing cut (not for use with a mallet). Overall length approx. 25cm. The blade has a 55mm curvature - 45mm width.

These heavy duty gouges are hooped for use with a mallet. They have a sound absorbing nylon insert in the head and a heavy duty shank. Overall length is 30cm. Very suitable for bowl of trough carving.

Karlsson make a wide range of carving tools which are very suitable for bowl carving and general work. I stock a selection of these as well as the more usual designs there are also some very interesting patterns, in particular the dog-leg gouge for working in deep bowls. Each tool is hand finished, sharpened and honed ready for use and stamped with the makers name and curvature. He only uses the best quality steel which gives the very keenest cutting edge. If you want a tool for life these are the best that I have come across so far. Karlsson has his own reference system to decribe the sweep (curvature) of the tool, the number refering to the radius in mm of the cutting blade.
