 Re: numbers for back bent gouges Well I was just at a carving seminar this past weekend and we talked about that exact thing. The instructor, who was originally from Bosnia and was a professional carver there says the #25 is a #5 and a #23 is a #3 The number actually denotes that it is a back bent gouge and the second number denotes the sweep of the gouge. You are absolutely correct, at least according to him. Gene
