Hi Tom,
That marking indicates the tool is a fishtail shaped tool. Have fun.

Hi Tom: Yes, that is absolutely correct! The 'F' stands for Fishtail. You will also find Pfeil uses an 'A' identification which stands for 'Short Bent' or 'Spoon'. Also a 'L' which stands for 'Long Bent' or 'Curved'. Also a 'D' which stands for 'Mid Size'. Different manufacturers use different symbols or even 'sku' series to identify the shape of the tool. We have a tutorial on our website that helps explain some of the various shapes and terms. Have a look: https://www.chippingaway.com/basics/understanding-woodcarving-tools/
