Stocksdale book luck

[Lars Hansen]

Obviously, Bob Stocksdale's work is not quite as famous this side of the Atlantic, and I haven't been able to find Roszkiewicz's book for sale in mainland Europe for some time. But just as I was pulling myself together to order one with customs, shipping, and all, a sample pops up in a classified ad 20 minutes' drive from me in rural Denmark and at a very reasonable price! Re-read the book and enjoyed the illustrations, but one puzzles me a bit. On page 79 the caption says "Bob's scraper was shaped and ground from heavy carbon steel bar stock". The illustration doesn't quite seem to fit that description, nor do any others in the book. Not being a native English speaker, I may have missed a point (or two).
Would anyone be so kind as to enlighten me?

TIA, Lars

Well, I use scrapers far more than most, and that ain't no scraper.... Looks to be a fairly open fluted shape gouge.

It doesn't even appear to be at no-flute.
Just wondering if someone here might be familiar with the the scraper, he actually did use.

It’s a shallow fluted gouge. Stockdale‘s go to tool.

I guess, I was being overly diplomatic about the caption. Let me rephrase.
My question is what the scraper used by Bob Stocksdale actually looked like?

In this article on Glaser, all they show is that shallow gouge in 3 forms that Glaser made for Stocksdale. http://aawcontentsource.org/aaw_cs1_pdf/AW2101p18-23.pdf

The illustration doesn't quite seem to fit that description, nor do any others in the book.

What is proofreading? ( with apologies to Jeopardy!)

@Bill: Maybe printed AND proofread the same place.
