These very deep gouges are designed with a parabolic curve. They are designed to be rolled up to 90 degrees and change shape from a deep #11 to a smooth #3 in one continuous cut. The thumbnail grind keeps the corners from digging into the wood as the tool is rolled.
Palm Tools included: FR725 #11X x 3/16", FR925 #11X x 5/16", FR926 #11X x 3/8", FR927 #11X x 1/2".
This very popular set is great for those just getting started or those with more experience who like to carve smaller sized projects. The handle fits comfortably in the palm, allowing for good control close to your work. The five profiles can perform a variety of tasks and carve moderate detail.
As the name implies, this set was made for miniature carving. Model-makers, as well as those who enjoy carving fine detail, find these tools quite handy. Ranging in size from 1/8-inch down to 1/16-inch, these tools make others seem like crayons when you really need a sharp pencil.
