Brand: W Butcher | Original/Reproduction: Antique Original |
On Offer: A nice English Antique W Butcher 7/16" No. 8 sweep wood carving gouge in excellent antique condition on a vintage Buck Bros handle. The gouge will need honing prior to use. The blade is marked W. Butcher Cast Steel on the front and has the arrow with a encircled letter on the back. There is no Maltese cross.. The handle is a nice vintage Buck Bros. handle with magic marker marks #8 - 10. The gouge came from a lo...ng time woodworker's estate. He marked all his working carving tools with a sweep/style and metric size on the handle. While he collected a few in the box Stanley tools, his chisels/gouges were working tools and he modified them as needed. A collector would consider this a Frakengouge but it is a great user tool with a long history
