#6 Sweep Gouges by Pfeil Swiss Made
The series #6 Sweep Gouges by Pfeil Swiss Made have a moderate curve on the blade. These gouges are commonly used for shaping recesses and raised surfaces. Carving folds of drapery into wood is one example of a great use of this tool. These sweep gouges carve precise grooves and trenches, and make a great addition to any woodcarver's kit.
We carry all of Pfeil's other sweep gouges, including #1 (straight), #2, #3, #4, #5, #7, #8, #9, and #11 (veiner). The higher the series number is, the deeper the curve on the tool will be. For example, the #11 has a much steeper curve (like a deep U-shape) than the #5, and the #3 has a much gentler curve than the #9.
Features:
- Hardwood handle
- Special alloy chrome vanadium steel

Skilled craftsmanship, high requirements in development and production, and multiple quality checks occur during the entire manufacturing process.

Ecological and Ergonomic.
The environment and our living space are important to us. Precious resources like water, air and energy are used sparingly and as efficiently as possible in Pfeil's manufacturing. They deliberately use native woods to produce the tool handles. They are treated with solvent-free vegetable oil; this means for example that the octagonal handles made of ash sit firmly and securely in your hands.
