I got a 5/8" bowl gouge. It cost $20 plus not including shipping. The handle is ok lengthwise for me but smaller in diameter than my other bowl gouges. The shaft length is 9 inches but the usable flute length is only 3 3/4 inches. In comparison, my new Packard bowl gouge has a shaft length of 9 3/4 and a usable flute length of 5 3/4.
My biggest complaint is the flute itself. It is straight sided--nearly a v-shape. When used head on, the cutting width is narrow. It works ok when cutting with the wings but there is minimal transition between a straight wing cut and a v cut. Similar to having a right and a left narrow skew chisels joined together.
So, to me, it is worth about what it cost.
