A very good 3/16 inch or 5mm shallow spoon carving gouge by CHARLES HILL of Sheffield.

Marked 'C HILL SHEFFIELD' with the Cannon trade mark on the blade.

Not marked with a sweep number however this gouge is a good match to a London pattern No.25 sweep.

Very good boxwood handle with brass ferrule and leather washer.

Previous owner's initials 'W.H.J'.

9⁵/₁₆ inches (236mm) overall length.
