In a professional workshop, a tool set must function as an integrated manufacturing system capable of adapting to shifting project scopes without slowing down throughput. This 12-piece STRYI Profi craft system is engineered as an all-in-one workshop engine. It completely bridges the gap between different woodworking techniques, containing the exact mechanical combinations required to execute deep vessel hollowing, precise geometric chip carving, and full 3D sculptural figurine modeling out of the box.

Workshop Logic: The Multi-Discipline Workflow

This system is curated to eliminate tool redundancy by covering three distinct production pathways in a single workstation setup.

For functional vessel making (spoons and kuksas), the workflow utilizes the 50mm Whittling Knife to rapidly profile the external handle architecture, while the 20mm Short Bent Gouge functions as the internal excavation engine, clearing curved cavities without handle interference.

When shifting to geometric chip carving and panel decoration, the 25mm and 30mm Swallowtail Knives execute clean vertical stop-cuts, while the 30mm Short Semicircular Gouge and 6mm Short 90-Degree V-Chisel clear crisp valleys and micro-shadow lines without splitting the grain.

For 3D figure modeling and relief texturing, the 5mm Sweep #7 and 3mm Sweep #9 Palm Gouges bring your hand closer to the wood, delivering the precise tactile feedback needed to carve complex organic details like the fur on the included Hare blank.

The “Pro-Steel” Advantage

  • Hand-Forged W1-7 High-Carbon Steel: Forged by hand to establish maximum molecular density, supporting a razor edge that slices cleanly through tough wood fibers without micro-chipping.

  • 60–62 HRC Hardness: Conditioned through a signature 11-stage tempering cycle for elite edge retention across extended production runs in both soft and hardwoods.

  • 3mm Structural Steel Thickness: Engineered to professional rigidity standards, providing vital vibration damping and stable edge geometry during high-pressure manual push cuts.

  • European Oak Handles: Finished with natural linseed oil, these durable handles maximize grip friction and transfer direct tool feedback to the carver's hand.

  • Out of the Box Readiness: Every tool arrives fully honed and mirror-polished, bypassing initial shop setup costs so you can move immediately into carving.

  • Stropping Apex Recovery: High-purity metallurgy ensures a few rapid passes on leather restore the cutting edge completely, maximizing bench time and reducing tool wear.

  • Manufacturer-Direct Quality: Produced entirely in our Ukrainian forge, delivering professional-grade hardware directly from the toolmakers without middleman markups.

What’s in the Kit

  • Whittling Knife 50mm (Art. 185015): The primary external profiling knife. Engineered for high-leverage roughing cuts, handle shaping, and deep paring.

  • Short Bent Gouge 20mm (Art. 119920): The vessel hollowing specialist. Lifts the handle clear of deep cavity rims to execute smooth, curved interior cuts.

  • Swallowtail Knife 30mm (Art. 390030): The primary geometric architect. Designed for deep vertical incisions and clean, sharp-walled geometric stop-cuts.

  • Swallowtail Knife 25mm (Art. 390025): The micro-geometric whittling knife. Optimized for cleaning corner junctions and refining intricate layout lines.

  • Short Gouge Semicircular 30mm (Art. 390930): The broad-volume excavator. A compact carving chisel built for smooth, deep organic scoops and relief lowering.

  • Short V-Parting Chisel 90°, 6mm (Art. 399006): The structural outliner. Establishes crisp outer borders, framework definitions, and high-contrast lines.

  • Palm Gouge Sweep #7, 5mm (Art. 130705): The detail modeling agent. Perfect for shaping low-relief contours and smooth background leveling.

  • Palm Gouge Sweep #9, 3mm (Art. 130903): The ultra-narrow micro-veiner. Engineered for fine hair textures, wrinkles, and deep architectural texturing.

  • Premium Material & Education Pack: Includes a laser-printed 10x10cm practice board, a 3D "Hare" block, a 10x2.5x2.5cm basswood block, and full access to our step-by-step video training curriculum.

Complete Your Workshop

  • STRYI Professional Micro-Chisel SET : The essential mechanical expansion for moving from broad architectural masses to millimetric precision.

  • STRYI Profiled Leather Strop: The only efficient way to maintain the 10 distinct radii in your relief set. Standard flat strops cannot reach the internal apex of gouges, leading to rounded bevels and lost cutting efficiency. 

  • STRYI Professional Chip Carving Kit in Leather Roll-Case: The strategic addition for geometric contrast. Integrating traditional chip-carving patterns into organic relief panels significantly increases the complexity and market value of your work.

I've used a variety of knives, including those mentioned most by seasoned carvers; in my opinion, this ranks up there with those. It came sharp, and it strops up easily. I've enjoyed carving with this knife.

This is a great tool and is very well made. Arrived super sharp and highly polished. It cuts very well and very smoothly. It took about a 3 week to arrive to Alberta, Canada, but for the price it was well worth the wait. Thanks!
