Small Kuksa Adze with deep curved round blade and ash wood handle by Sharky Forged Steel Tools

Hold fast. Shape what matters.

A compact adze with a deep round bite—quiet weight in the hand, grain under thumb, curve meeting curve.

At the stump

The bowl begins with a single hollow

A small arc with big intent

Big tools feel clumsy when the work turns inward. The Small Kuksa Adze brings a deep curved blade to the exact place your hand wants control, so each swing lands clean and close. Its 21.5 cm ash handle settles naturally, balancing the 430 g head for steady hollowing without the fight. Edge held by hardened 52100 steel means more time carving and less time reaching for a stone.

Calm, deliberate cuts

Shaping a kuksa or bowl is a conversation with the wood’s grain. The round 4.5 cm edge follows that dialogue into tight radii, scooping smooth basins rather than tearing. Ready-sharpened and paired with a leather guard, it slips into the day’s rhythm—set down, pick up, continue the form. Work becomes fluent, and the vessel takes shape where hands will later gather.

For the carver at close range

Woodworkers—hobbyist or professional—who hollow bowls, kuksas, and other concave forms and want precise, controlled removal in tight spaces.

In practice

Grip the ash handle close to the head and make short, controlled chops to hollow and refine the interior of small bowls and cups.
