Product Description
The Stryi Sculpture #7 Gouge 20mm is a large wood carving gouge that is used in large-scale sculpture wood carvings. This style of woodcarving can be used with a mallet as a supplemental tool to assist the gouge in rapid wood removal or to help carve harder areas. These Stryi sculpture gouges are made from durable carbon steel suitable for strictest standards, especially for wood carving.
The handle has an ergonomic and optical shape that allows comfortable long lasting carving each day without additional pressure on hands preventing hand fatigue.
All Stryi carving tools are hand sharpened which provide soft, even tempered, smooth and clear cuts on hard and soft woods.
The 20mm sweep is. .78 inches wide. Stryi gouges are very versatile and can perform different cuts. There are three basic cuts the Stryi Sculpture #7 Gouge 20mm can create, convex cuts, concave cuts, and plunge cuts. Every gouge blade is a small segment of a circle, so any individual gouge will cut a perfect circle. The bent gouge also allows carvers to cut into recessed areas without the handle interfering with the surface of the wood.
