Introducing the Set of 4 Narex Firmer Gouges PREMIUM: Exceptional Quality Tools for Woodworking Upgrade your woodworking tools with this premium set of Narex firmer gouges. Handcrafted by a small tool manufacturer in the Czech Republic, these gouges are crafted with precision and are renowned for their exceptional quality. The blades of these gouges are made from fine-grained, nicely tempered chrome-manganese steel, hardened to Rc 59. This ensures that the blades not only take an excellent edge, but also retain it for longer periods.
The blades are tapered in height, allowing for easier penetration into wood. Additionally, they come with a black coating that resists wear and corrosion, ensuring their longevity. As with any edge tool, these gouges will require sharpening before use. However, their overall value as a good quality tool cannot be understated.
This 4-piece set includes gouges of various sizes: 8, 10, 16, and 26 mm. The back bevels of the blades are ground at a 25-degree bevel, enabling precise and controlled carving. The handles of these gouges are made from waxed European Hornbeam, providing a comfortable and secure grip during your woodworking projects. With lengths ranging from 4 ¼ to 4 ½ inches and diameters of 1 ¼ to 1 3/8 inches, the handles are designed for ease of use.
The blades have well-seated heavy steel tangs and brass ferrules, ensuring they can withstand vigorous mallet work. Additionally, the set comes in a retail box, making it easy to store and transport. Whether you are a professional woodworker or a hobbyist, these Narex firmer gouges are a must-have addition to your toolkit. Perfect for carving, chiseling, and woodworking projects, they offer superior performance and durability that will last for years to come. Upgrade your woodworking experience with the Narex Firmer Gouges PREMIUM set.
Share your thoughts with other customers
This set of chisels has received mixed reviews from customers. Some have found them difficult to sharpen due to the hard metal, but have eventually achieved a sharp edge. Others have found the metal to be too soft and the edges to curl after a few uses. One customer received a set with unevenly ground angles and had to spend a lot of time sharpening them. However, another customer found the set to be worth the money and highly recommended it for its quality and usefulness. A few customers have mentioned issues with cracked brass ferrules on their chisels. Overall, it seems that this set may require some effort to sharpen and maintain but can be worth it for the results.
