Pfeil Long Bent Chisel - #8L

Reach the Deepest Recesses and Corners with a Swiss-Made Long Bent Chisel

Some hollows and tight angles sit beyond the reach of a straight gouge, with the blade lifting away before the edge can finish the cut. The Pfeil Number 8L Long Bent Chisel solves that for you. Its gradually curved shank carries the cutting edge smoothly down into recesses and corners, so you can work below the surface without the body of the tool fouling your timber.

The deeper gouge profile gives you a fuller sweep than the Number 7L, clearing more stock with each pass as you shape pronounced hollows and rounded forms. That long, even bend keeps your approach steady and your cuts predictable, even in the most awkward spots. Swiss made from chrome vanadium alloy to Pfeil's own specifications, it arrives sharpened and ready for the bench.
