I purchased this first set of leather cutting tools back in May of 2025, which took a bit longer to receive than I was hoping. So I emailed Forged Steel Tools in the Ukraine, and they assured me that they were a legitimate blacksmith shop and that I’d receive my order within the next week.

When the set arrived, I was supremely pleased with the quality of the product(s), and they’ve been my “Go-To” tools ever since, and I have many.

Since that 1st shipment, I’ve also purchased their set of French Skivers as well.

I’m truly pleased with the look, the feel in the hand, and the performance of the cutting blades.

Thanks guys, I look forward to my next purchase.

Quality Craftsmanship

I ordered two wood carving knives from Forged Steel Tools on Etsy and they were phenomenal!!! Great customer service, quality craftsmanship, and fast delivery. I also added a spoon carving kit to my order and was highly impressed with the tools and also the handmade leather blade covers that came with them. Sharkey FST by Zhanna is definitely worth checking out.

Curved Bowl Gouge, 10 - 45 mm (0.4 - 1.8 inches)

Good quality curved gouge

I’ve been carving in some way or another for about 30 yrs using knives and basic gouges. My ancestors were blacksmiths so I was drawn to forgedsteeltools when I searched for a curved spoon/bowl gouge. The small “bowl gouge” sounded good and I bought one. Upon arrival, it was exact what I expected: rugged, good quality materials and well made. However, it was not sharp and the bevel was curved, (handle to edge) making it difficult for me to sharpen (no tormek). So I’ve been working on developing a flat bevel behind the edge and it is getting sharper. It does to seem to hold an edge nicely so I’m pretty sure I’ll love it once I get it as sharp as my other gouges.

Personally i wasn't impresses by the build

Personally i wasn't impresses by the build quality or the function of the tool with the handle being out of line with the cutting edge its easy to tilt the cutting edge up and the blade is quite thin in my opinion
