Achieve flawless results on your most ambitious deep-carving projects. When a standard gouge lacks the reach or stability for heavy stock removal, the STRYI Maestro 30mm Large Bent Gouge provides the industrial-grade strength required. Featuring a massive 5mm thick blade, this specialized tool locks in the perfect cutting angle for hollowing out large bowls, kuksas, and architectural furniture details.
Forget the frustration of grinding new tools. Every STRYI Maestro gouge arrives professionally honed and ready to hit the wood the moment it reaches your workbench. Spend less time sharpening and more time mastering the thickest hardwoods.
Legendary Edge Retention: Forged from premium High-Carbon Tool Steel W1-7 (60–62 HRC), these blades stay "scary sharp" even during heavy-duty material removal.
Maestro Power - 1/5" (5mm) blade thickness: Unlike thinner tools, this robust profile eliminates blade flex and vibration, giving you total command when carving deep, wide concaves.
Surgical Precision: The aggressive bent neck provides the necessary clearance to reach the bottom of large vessels without the handle obstructing your stroke.
Effortless Maintenance: Requires only periodic stropping to maintain its professional edge.
20mm - 30mm (0.8" - 1.2"): Our most popular versatile sizes, ideal for carving standard spoons, kuksas, and medium-sized bowls.
35mm - 50mm (1.4" - 2"): Heavy-duty wide blades designed for rapid material removal in large basins, deep plates, and massive sculptural projects.
Full set of 7 Bent Gouges: The complete master collection for carvers who require the perfect radius and depth for every professional project.

A beautiful knife that arrived razor sharp and ready to go. I have found my new favourite knife. It makes such fine cuts and can also be used almost like a plane. All round buy this knife, you won't be disappointed

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.

What a great knife for detailing. Sharpened at the right angle and I can get into small spaces with no problem.

I only purchase tools as I identify a specific needs for my woodworking and sculpting. The V gouge I got from you is a pleasure to use and works exactly as I hoped. Beautiful tool.

Stryi carving tools are excellent! Hold an edge extremely well and are a more quality knife then some of the competitors. TINY CARVING

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!
