Ashley Iles 1/16" Side Bent 60 deg. V Tools

These nifty tools can help you access tricky areas of fine detail carving, such as the grass around an animal or bird's feet, or any other time side-cutting is the only way to do precision work around corners.

The Sideways Bent V tools come in pairs for right and left cutting, or individually. The blade is approximately 1/16" (1.5mm) wide with a 60 degree V cutting angle. Like all Ashley Iles tools, it is packed sharp and ready to go.

"In both sculpture and in detailed relief work these special V-tools could help to advance your technique. They have been forged with considerable skill and technically they are hard to fault ... these V-tools certainly are in the really useful category." - From a Woodcarving magazine test report of the Ashley Iles Side-bent V-tools (Woodcarving No. 63, p. 49)

"I look on [this tool] as a lifebelt... at the right time it's vital!" -- Jermey Williams, celebrated British carver
