Pfeil Straight Chisel - #9

Clear Stock Fast and Shape Deep Forms with a Swiss-Made Deep Gouge

When your carving calls for a tool that scoops out a deep, pronounced hollow and clears excess material quickly, the Pfeil Number 9 Straight Gouge gives you the bite you need. It carries a deep gouge profile on a straight shank, designed for shaping recesses, raised surfaces, and the kind of flowing folds you find in drapery.

That depth lets you remove plenty of timber in each pass while still working with control. Swiss made from chrome vanadium alloy to Pfeil's own specifications, it arrives sharpened and ready for the bench. Regular honing keeps that edge keen for clean, accurate cuts.
