This Japanese V-shaped gouge with a rounded base is designed for woodcarving, creating natural textures, and detailed work requiring smooth transitions. Its V-shape with a rounded base allows for fluid and organic lines, without the sharp edges left by a traditional V-gouge.

Made from HSS (High-Speed Steel), it offers excellent edge retention and high wear resistance. Ideal for carving fabric folds, wrinkles, decorative patterns, and subtle reliefs, it allows for a natural and harmonious finish with exceptional control. Its hinoki (Japanese cypress) handle ensures lightness, comfort, and precision during the most intricate work.
