Record Power 3-Piece Pattern Carving Tool Collection – Compatible with the The Carving by Numbers tool range from Record Power has been designed as the perfect companion to the internationally recognized Carving by Numbers educational series, created by professional British woodcarver Mike Davies. Whether you are a beginner discovering the joy of woodcarving or an experienced carver expanding your toolkit, this collection combines premium quality carving tools with innovative step-by-step teaching support.
Each carving tool is fitted with a Beech hardwood handle, chosen for its dense grain, durability, and comfort in hand. The ergonomic handle design makes it equally effective for delicate detail work or for use with a mallet during heavier sculpting tasks. A solid brass ferrule strengthens the joint, preventing splitting and ensuring years of reliable service even under demanding use.
The chromium-vanadium alloy steel blades are hardened to approximately RC60 on the Rockwell scale, delivering exceptional sharpness, edge retention, and toughness. Unlike standard carbon steel, this advanced alloy offers enhanced resistance to wear, making it an excellent choice for both hobby and professional workshops. Average blade length is 115mm (4.53"), with an overall tool length of 235mm (9.25"), ensuring balance, precision, and comfort during long carving sessions.
Each blade features a parallel-sided tang extending 45mm (1.77") into the handle, maximizing surface contact and stability. Combined with the brass ferrule, this robust construction provides outstanding strength and control, even when carving with force.
The defining feature of this range is the unique numbered referencing system, which links directly to the Carving by Numbers educational program. Buyers receive access to an extensive online resource including tutorials, downloadable plans, carving projects, and videos. As a bonus, you'll also receive online access to the bestselling Woodcarving by Numbers books and the complete Foundation Skills training program.
