Ashley Iles Curved Carving Gouge, 1.25 in. x 17
This curved gouge will allow you to carve deeper into a bowl. Good also for carving the bowls of spoons, using a 'choked-up' technique. Whilst bent carving gouges have a bolster on them it is best not to bash them with a wooden mallet as the forces involved can do strange things to the structure of the steel, hand pressure is best.

Alongee pattern, i.e. the blade tapers all the way from the shoulder to the cutting edge
