Pfeil Individual Lino Medium Gouge Chisel - #7 sweep

Pfeil Lino Medium Gouge #7: A Deeper Curve for Bold Hollows

The Pfeil Individual Lino Medium Gouge with a #7 sweep gives you a deeper curve than the #5, so you can scoop hollows, cut crisp channels, and remove more material with each pass. That stronger arc holds a defined edge through curved work on both timber and lino blocks, making it the gouge you reach for when shallow tools leave too little shape behind.

The pear wood palm handle fills your hand for steady, close work, while the precisely ground and polished blade cuts cleanly from the first stroke. At 125mm overall with a 70mm blade, it stays compact and responsive for small, detailed sections.

Key Benefits

• Deeper #7 sweep: Cuts pronounced hollows and channels with each pass.
• Pear wood palm handle: Comfortable, secure grip for close detailed work.
• Precisely ground and polished: Sharp from the start with trusted Pfeil quality.
• Compact 125mm length: Steady control for small-scale carving.
• 70mm blade: Enough reach for smooth, accurate cuts.

Main Applications

• Clearing material quickly in lino block printing.
• Shaping pronounced curves and rounded contours.
• Defining bold lines and texture in detailed work.

A #7 sweep handles the work a shallower gouge cannot, giving you depth and definition where it matters. Keep one on the bench and you have the right tool the moment your design calls for a stronger curve.
