Flexcut 45 Degree Straight V-Gouge – 3/16 inch

Flexcut carving tools are modern, innovative carving tools made of high quality spring steel in Pennsylvania. First, you’ll notice their handles, which are nicely sculpted and finished ash, shaped to fit your hand in a way no turned handle could ever match.Closer inspection reveals that the blades are also unique.They’re thin, barely 1/16″ thick and completely flat along most of their length.High-quality spring steel gives each tool a pleasant degree of flexibility, which feels both unique and totally natural to the tool.When you put these tools to work you’ll notice the final but far from least distinguishing detail: they’re razor sharp as delivered, and they stay that way for a long time.Carvers report they can maintain sharp edges for as long as a year between sharpenings simply by honing whenever necessary on a leather Power Strop wheel.Flexcut tools’ ability to bend slightly through a cut makes carving feel remarkably different.Each tool has been carefully designed to provide just enough flex for comfort without sacrificing the stiffness needed for precise control.
