Carving functional woodenware—spoons, cups, and kuksas—requires a specific mechanical transition from exterior shaping to internal hollowing. This 3-piece STRYI Profi SET is engineered as a complete "Closed-Loop" system for vessel makers. By pairing a 58mm whittling knife with a specialized bent gouge and a 30mm hook knife, this kit provides the precise tool geometry needed to clear waste efficiently while maintaining the structural integrity of thin-walled designs.
This set is curated to solve the primary technical challenges of hollow-form carving. In a real workshop workflow, you begin with the Whittling Knife to establish the primary silhouette and handle architecture. The Bent Gouge is then utilized to create a "starting pocket" and manage the transitions between the rim and the floor of the vessel, where straight tools would lose leverage. Finally, the Hook Knife executes the circular slicing cuts required to hollow out the bowl, leaving a burnished, tool-finished surface that requires minimal sanding.
Hand-Forged W1-7 High-Carbon Steel: Every blade is forged to maintain a refined molecular structure, supporting a razor-sharp apex that slices through grain with zero-resistance.
60–62 HRC Hardness: Subjected to a precision 11-stage tempering cycle, ensuring elite edge retention through long sessions in abrasive hardwoods like Cherry, Birch, or Walnut.
3mm Steel Thickness: This professional grade provides superior rigidity and vibration damping. The added mass ensures the blade doesn't flex during heavy push cuts, giving you total stability and better control over your relief depth.
Ergonomic Oak Handles: Finished with natural linseed oil, these handles are designed for high-leverage hand pressure and long-duration comfort without hand fatigue.
Razor Edge Out of the Box: Every tool arrives professionally honed and mirror-polished. You move directly from the box to the wood—zero initial grinding required.
Manufacturer-Direct Quality: Produced in our Ukrainian forge, ensuring direct accountability for the metallurgy and geometry of every edge.

Whittling Knife 58mm (Art. 185812): The primary workhorse. Its 58mm blade is perfectly balanced for removing bulk wood from the exterior and executing the fine paring cuts needed to refine the spoon's silhouette.
Bent Gouge #5, 15mm (Art. 110515): The transition specialist. The bent shank provides the mechanical clearance needed to level backgrounds and shape the internal curves of shallow bowls and kuksas where a straight tool would hit the rim.
Hook Knife 30mm (Art. 150030): The hollowing engine. Designed for the right hand, this 30mm diameter blade is optimized for clearing the internal cavity of spoons and cups, leaving a clean, glass-like finish.
