*by S***M on Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2022*

The 1/2" Robert Sorby bowl gouge is well made. The handle is comfortable and solid. The steel is high quality and holds a good sharp edge even on the very hard and tough wood species.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    So So
  

*by C***H on Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2022*

It's a bowl gouge so not much could be wrong.  Hard to screw up a piece of HSS steel and a wooden handle but the factory sharpening though somewhat sharp looks like it was done fast on a grind wheel.  It took me a few minutes to fix the shape and sharpness but it works fine.
