The Stryi Profi #5 straight gouge is a wood carving tool with a sloping sweep that sits between a deep gouge and a flat chisel. It is forged from W1-7 high-carbon steel hardened to 60-62 HRC, with a thin 3 mm wall for maneuverability in tight recesses, and comes hand-honed and sharp. The European oak handle is finished with linseed oil. It suits relief carvers who want a fast-cutting tool for rough shaping and detail, and owners praise its out-of-the-box sharpness and sturdy build.

Owners praise the Stryi #5 gouge for arriving razor-sharp, for its craftsmanship, and for a thick blade that stands up to heavy mallet work. They say the flat grind cuts aggressively and removes wood quickly. The main complaint is that the high-carbon steel can rust if not kept dry and oiled.

This is a #5 straight gouge for wood relief carving. The #5 sweep is an intermediate curve between a flat #1 and a semicircular #9. It suits work that moves between rough shaping and fine detail.
The blade is forged from W1-7 high-carbon tool steel and hardened to 60-62 HRC. The edge is hand-honed and sharpened before it ships. The handle is European oak with a natural linseed oil finish.
It is used for flat-relief carving, contour sculpting and cleaning up after CNC work. Narrower blades suit fine details, and wider blades suit removing more wood.
