STRYI Profi 10mm Short Bent Gouge for Kuksa & Spoon Carving - Professional Spoon-Shaped Chisel - Hand Forged Tool for Deep Scooping, Relief Carving & Detailing

The Short Bent Gouge 10mm STRYI Profi, art. 119910 is a highly convenient tool designed for carving kuksa, spoons, bowls, plates, and other deep carvings. Its unique bent gouge shape makes it particularly effective for reaching into tight spaces and achieving detailed results. Additionally, it proves useful for cleaning up the background in relief carving. Moreover, the narrowed metal part before the extended cutting part allows maneuvering in the carving process. A chisel-like spoon shape allows for scooping wood-making medium-sized grooves.

• PECIALIZED SHORT-BENT GEOMETRY: Engineered with a precise short curve, this 10mm gouge acts like a surgical "scoop" for wood. It is the ultimate tool for carving the deep, rounded interiors of Kuksa cups, spoons, and small bowls where standard gouges cannot pivot.
• UNIQUE NARROWED SHANK FOR MANEUVERABILITY: The metal shaft narrows significantly before meeting the 10mm cutting edge. This deliberate design allows you to "steer" and maneuver the tool inside tight, deep hollows without the body of the chisel rubbing against the wood’s rim.
• VERSATILE RELIEF & BACKGROUND CLEANER: Beyond hollowing, this short bent gouge is exceptionally effective for relief carving. Its curved profile allows you to reach over sections of your work to clean up backgrounds and create uniform, medium-depth grooves with total control.
• RAZOR-SHARP HIGH-CARBON STEEL (62 HRC): Hand-forged from premium W1-7 steel and vacuum-hardened to a professional 62 Rockwell Hardness. This ensures a "scary sharp" edge that stays keen through dense hardwoods like oak and walnut, requiring less frequent sharpening.
• EADY-TO-CARVE CRAFTSMANSHIP: Every STRYI Profi tool is hand-sharpened and leather-stropped to a mirror polish before leaving our forge. Featuring a balanced Oak handle treated with natural linseed oil, it offers a non-slip, vibration-dampening grip for professional results.
• EASY TO MAINTAIN QUALITY: Designed for a lifetime of use. The deep-tempered steel remains responsive to simple leather stropping, and the ergonomic oak handle, treated with natural linseed oil, provides a non-slip, vibration-dampening grip for fatigue-free carving sessions
