ROBERT SORBY CARVING STRAIGHT GOUGE 1/4" (6MM)

There are hundreds of carving tool sweeps and shapes to choose from. Robert Sorby manufactures 24 of the most universally used standard tools, 12 micro or palm-held tools and six larger sculpturing tools. When Robert Sorby reintroduced carving tools in 1993, we reappraised tool style and revised conventional thinking: Selecting special Sheffield alloy steel unique to Robert Sorby Creating perfect balance to counter new blade design Employing stringent heat treatment to ensure the finest edge retention Providing a polished, razor sharp factory finish Safety Always carve away from you with hand behind the cutting edge Ensure wood is secured in clamp or vice Wear sensible shoes in case a tool is dropped and never try to catch one if you do
