The profile is very similar to the quarter round in the oak egg and dart video. When I get a chance, I'll put the measurements up. It is about half the size as the oak egg and dart - roughly.

Thanks Justin! At the moment I'm going to get a really good stock of woodcarving videos. I may consider some stone carving videos down the road, but the difficulty is you will be watching a video for 10 hours, and it will be good video to watch to solve any kind of insomnia. Not quite as "fast-paced" as wood carving.
Wow and Thank You! I was wondering why my poplar Moravain bench was ripping so much when trying to carve the top. I have only been wood carving for a year, but oil and water painting my entire life so I felt very comfortable with the artistic side of carving. Poplar is not my favorite wood to be carving in that's for sure! Thank you so much for your help Mary!
Generally the numbers are similar if the brand is European. The only difference is the v-chisel is sometimes numbered as a #41 or #12 (60 degree angle). Occasionally a #2 is a skew, and sometimes it is a slightly curved gouge. Other than that, the numbers and shapes are pretty similar between companies.
