Chisel chisel is beveled (for the right hand) STRYI Profi 13mm for hard-to-reach areas
Skilled woodcarving and precision woodworking require instruments that match the natural mechanics of the hand, especially when cleaning out tight interior angles. The STRYI Profi 13mm (0.51 in) right-handed skewed bent gouge is engineered specifically for right-handed carvers tackling deep relief work, recessed backgrounds, or the internal floors of wooden vessels. When a standard straight chisel forces your hand into an awkward angle, this specialty tool lifts your knuckles completely clear of the workpiece while diving straight into restrictive corners
Designed with a specialized 45-degree skew angle and a single right-hand bevel, the blade translates pulling power smoothly along the cutting trajectory for tear-free corner profiling. Forged from high-carbon U8 tool steel and heat-treated to 58-62 HRC, the robust 2mm monolithic blade maintains its rigid alignment under heavy hand pressure across soft basswood or dense hardwoods like oak, walnut, and apple. The seasoned European oak handle finished with natural linseed oil provides a secure, fatigue-free grip during long carving sessions, ensuring absolute control over every pass
Practical Applications Chisel
-
Internal Corner Cleanup: Precise shaping of the tight joint between floors and vertical walls in wooden spoons, kuksas, drinking vessels, and deep bowls
-
Recessed Background Detailing: Leveling and cleaning out shadowed background planes around raised relief elements and architectural panels
-
Figural Sculpture & Anatomy: Undercutting deep drapery folds, intricate hair strands, and delicate anatomical lines in wood figures
