What are carving chisels and knives used for?
Carving chisels and knives are precision tools used in woodcarving, detailing, and sculpting. They're ideal for tasks such as relief carving, whittling, chip carving, and figure carving. These tools allow artisans to create fine details, smooth contours, and deep cuts in both softwoods and hardwoods.
What types of carving tools are available and how do they differ?
Carving tools come in a variety of blade shapes and sizes:
Carving knives – for whittling and general shaping
Gouges (U-shaped chisels) – for scooping cuts or hollows
V-tools – for sharp grooves and line work
Skew chisels – for angled slicing and finishing work
Veiners and parting tools – for narrow detail work
Each type serves a different function, and many carvers use sets to handle diverse carving techniques and patterns.
How do I maintain carving chisels and knives for best performance?
Keep blades razor sharp using sharpening stones or leather strops
Regularly hone the edge to maintain sharpness and control
Store tools in a protective case or roll to prevent dulling or chipping
Use appropriate carving techniques and controlled hand pressure to avoid blade damage or injury
Proper maintenance ensures cleaner cuts, safer handling, and a longer tool life.
