Robert Sorby 862H 1/8-inch micro spindle gouge
Micro spindle gouge

When to choose it
Choose this small spindle gouge for a tight detail that calls for a narrower edge than the quarter-inch micro gouge. The ten-inch overall length is also worth comparing when a compact rest or bench leaves little room for a long grip.
The eighth-inch label describes the size of the cutting tool, not the length of the blade. Use the maker's micro-spindle application as the selection boundary and check the profile before swapping with a general-purpose spindle gouge.
