First of all, the bevel isn't on the wrong side, as others have stated. These are In-cannel gouges; the bevel is supposed to be on the inside. The in-cannel is intended for paring an inside, or concave curve.
Some call them "pattern maker" gouges, but they were neither designed nor intended specifically for that trade, but rather as a joinery tool. They are not designed for turning and would likely be unsafe to use with a lathe.
Ok for the price. Don't expect to anything too fancy at this price point. A lot of other customers have complained about needing to sharpen the tool before using them but if you're into woodworking or just starting, sharpening will become second nature to you.
Tools will get dull with use and will need to be honed. So look at it this way, you're going to get a lot of practice developing a skill you will be using throughout your woodworking career by buying these tools. If you do not know how to sharpen gouges there are a couple of good videos on line.
First of all, let me start by saying that no matter what type of cutting tool you buy the craftsman is responsible for putting the preferred/required cutting edge on the tool. It does not matter if the tool comes razor sharp or with no edge at all. Every worker needs to know how to sharpen and resharpen or even understand the cutting angles and how to change them or why.
