The Flexcut 3 mm Micro Tool Set is a five-piece carving set for miniature and detail work. It includes a skew, a sweep, a deep U-gouge and two V-parting tools, all with 3 mm high-carbon steel blades on 3-7/8 inch ash handles. The small blades reach into tight corners and clean up ridges left by larger gouges, which is where full-size tools struggle. Flexcut's steel takes a keen edge and sharpens quickly on a strop, so the set suits carvers who already own full-size tools and want finer control.

Owners of Flexcut micro tools rate the steel and the sharpness highly and use them for miniature and detail carving. The main complaints are that the small blades can snap under force and that sharpening gear is not included.
The Flexcut 3 mm Micro Tool Set has 5 small carving tools for detailing and miniature carving. The tools are made in the USA from the same tool steel as Flexcut's larger tools, in a much smaller size.
The handles are designed to give a secure but relaxed grip for detailed work. The tools can be sharpened on Flexcut strops, which are sold separately.
The set is suited to miniatures, cleaning up ridges left by gouge cuts, cleaning up tight corners, and carving fine details like mouths and eyes.
