Hans Karlsson Dogleg Gouge 25-22 is a rare tool of exceptional quality.

Suitable for the hollowing out of larger cups/kuksa and ladles.

Made in Sweden by renowned toolsmiths Hans Karlsson Klensmide AB.

Works best with two hands, therefore your wooden blank should ideally be held in a vice or other form of holding device.

Made from high quality ball-bearing steel, that will take and hold an excellent edge.

Hans Karlsson has his own reference system to describe the sweep (curvature) of a tools edge, in this case 25 is the curve of a circle designated by the diameter measured in millimetres.

22 (7/8") is the length of the cutting edge in mm from corner to corner.

Total length approx. 250mm (10") including 100mm (4") lightly oiled ash or elm handle.

Hans Karlsson Dogleg Gouge 25-22 comes sharpened and honed ready to work.

Comes with a unique Woodsmith leather edge guard.

Exceptional quality tool that will be a joy to use.
