V-Tool, Straight Gouge Chisel, 60 Degrees, 1/2 Inch (MC460) for Woodworking

The Flexcut 1/2 inch Mallet V-Tool is a straight gouge chisel with a 60-degree V angle, making it ideal for larger projects such as architectural details or furniture that may require mallet tools. These types of tools are called "mallet tools" because they can be pushed through large amounts of waste wood with the aid of a heavy mallet. Mallet work, however, requires a very stable work surface and clamping system to avoid the project moving while being repeatedly struck. Alternatively, these tools can be pushed without a mallet in softer woods.

Manufactured in the USA, the Flexcut 1/2 inch Mallet V-Tool features a sweep designed for mallet carving, providing an ergonomic and efficient tool for the task. The sturdy ash handles are built to withstand the rigors of being driven by a mallet or by hand, ensuring long-lasting durability.

Flexcut has been proudly manufacturing quality, user-friendly, and affordable woodcarving, whittling, and printmaking tools in Erie, Pennsylvania since 1992. The Flexcut 1/2 inch Mallet V-Tool's razor-sharp 1095 high-carbon steel blade is ready to use right out of the package, allowing users to dive into their projects with confidence and precision.

This versatile tool is ideal for carving hardwoods and other dense or large projects, making it a valuable addition to the toolkit of any skilled woodworker or hobbyist. The combination of its sturdy construction, sharp blade, and ergonomic design ensures a comfortable and efficient carving experience, whether tackling complex architectural elements or shaping intricate furniture pieces.
