![]() ![]() The tools that Drew sells are excellent and he stands behind them 100%. The Karlsson bent gouges look ideal, but that's just a judgement from a picture - does anyone on the forum have any of these tools, and if so, what do they think of them? They're hand-forged and quite expensive, but I'm not one to skimp on tools when I can pay a little more and get a more usable/higher quality tool. ![]() I've also looked at Country Workshop's tools. Ironically, the smaller version is more expensive than the larger one. In particular, I've looked at Pfiel's offerings for a swept and curved adze - these seem to be limited to the #9 (european) sweep, and come either with a short, hatchet-type handle or a longer, two-handed (but still not full length) version. So my question is - what do creeker woodcarver's recommend for a highly-swept adze for roughing out the inside of a bowl blank? What would be your choice for a highly swept and highly curved bowl gouge? However, I've become interested in bowl carving after reading Roy Underhill's short chapter on dough bowls in one of the Woodwright's Shop books, and except for a smallish curved hand adze and a shingling axe, I don't have the right tools for the job. That means that most of my carving tools are on the smallish side - generally no larger than 20mm. I'm a tradtional carver with traditional, european-type tools (i.e., carving gouges instead of knives), mainly focused on furniture carving jobs. Hi All - I'm looking for some tool recommendations here. ![]()
