Do you mean like a tea kettle spout, or like a v-shaped spout?

For a tea kettle-type spout, I would use extrude along curve (or "along curve with scaling", which you can download from supercoldmilk.com) and extrude a ring along a spline.

For a V-type spout, I would build the bucket and then use the knife tool to cut in the v, and then scale the vertices along the edge of the v.
