1/2" gouge, a 'V' type; hard maple handle with wipe-on poly finish. Still a virgin (naturally a white handle :rolleyes:).

Nicely done... I need to find some stock for some new tool handles.

Nice long handle, is that the 'Jimmy Clewes' signature V or the standard V? I bought the Clewe's version and love it!

Thom, it's the 'standard' - how does the 'clewe's' version differ inuse?

Mike - congrats on your new gouge! Really nice work on your handle! I like the simple curve and your limited use of detail lines!
