What is a carving gouge?

A carving gouge is a curved chisel that can be used on both dry and green wood. A versatile little tool that can be used for commercial, functional or artistic pursuits.

What type of carving gouge do I need?

There are a wide number of variables when it comes to carving tools; size, shape and curvature. The tool you need will be entirely dependent on its intended use. If it’s for artistic purposes, there are a vast range of different methods out there, including chip carving, relief carving and power carving.

For general wood carving, you’re likely going to be looking at out-canal, straight gouges where the sharpened bevel is at the bottom of the blade. However, again, it is entirely dependent on your work and the effect you want to create. With this in mind, we supply a whole range of speciality tools to best suit your needs and enhance your style.

If you’re a beginner, it might seem economical to buy an entire set of assorted tools at once; however, this can be a waste. Some of your tools might be of no use to you, and cheaper sets never last long or reflect well on your practice. It’s always better to go for quality over quantity. You will likely benefit from buying one or two high-quality tools at a time from a reliable retailer like ToolBazaar.

We know that selecting the right tool can be overwhelming with so much to choose from, so we are always here to help. If you need advice or assistance, please get in touch, and we can help match you with the correct tool or tools.
