A three-piece set of large-bent gouges in 20mm, 30mm and 40mm widths, made for hollowing bowls and kuksas. The bent shaft lets you clear waste from deep hollows without the handle or the rim of the vessel getting in the way. Blades are hand-forged W1-7 carbon steel, tempered in 11 stages to 60-62 HRC, so they hold an edge longer than typical high-speed steel tools. Variable blade thickness of 2mm to 3mm damps vibration on heavy cuts, and the European oak handles are oiled with linseed. It suits bowl and kuksa carvers who want reach and a stable cut; the trade-off against straight gouges is that bent tools are less useful for flat and convex work, and carbon steel needs drying and oiling to stay rust-free.

Buyers describe the set as high-quality tools that feel at home in the hands. Carvers single out the ergonomics as making a real difference when hollowing deep bowls, and several note the gouges arrived pre-sharpened with edges well protected in the packaging.

This set has three large-bent gouges for hollowing bowls and kuksas. The bend gives reach and sweep for clearing waste from deep hollows without fighting the rim of the vessel. The blades come in 20 mm, 30 mm and 40 mm widths.
The blades are hand-forged from W1-7 carbon steel and go through an 11-stage tempering process. Hardness is 60-62 HRC. Blade thickness varies from 2 mm to 3 mm, which dampens vibration during heavy cuts. The European oak handles are finished with natural linseed oil for a secure grip and tactile feedback. The gouges come pre-sharpened.
Narrower blades suit fine details and wider ones suit bulk removal. The 40 mm gouge is for rapid bulk removal, and the 30 mm is for standard kuksas and deep bowls.
