Where I live, pretty much everyone over the age of 50 would make this guy look like it’s his first time holding a hatchet. Their hatchets and axes are basically an extension of their body. Really amazing to see, all of their axes are kept sharp enough to shave with.

I am surprised at how incredibly soothing it is to watch him with nothing more than the sound of his breathing and the sound of the knife and hatchet. It's like therapy.

Impressive especially when you know the tools used are incredibly sharp and must be maintained that way to make it work. Control of the blade edges and using the grain structure to achieve the end result is an art form that can’t be taught from a book. Obviously feeling the spoon emerge and envision of the piece is apparent.

The thing that brings me back to this video over and over again is that he grabs a tool once and when he is done with it, he's done with it. (pre-hollowing the bowl doesn't count.) Compact effort. No waste.

This video is a lesson on making a spoon… and on making a YT video. No dumb music, or wasteful filler talk. Just life in action from a master.

The silence is golden. I know you don't wake up wanting to be a perfectionist, but you manipulate it well. New sub, first watch. Thanks.

Title: Silent Carving Video: Chop chop chop chop chop

I am A) a person who usually watches videos in 1.75 -2x speed. B) a person who often checks their phone while watching videos And C) a person who usually needs to get up and snack on something or move around while watching videos... While watching this video I did NONE of that... I just watched. And my breath slowed, and my heart warmed, and I felt a little more human. So... thank you for that, I didn't realize how much I needed it.

A piece of wood. Only three sharp hand tools. Any drawing on the wood but a good eye and a lot of knowledge. = a beautiful spoon. Thank you for this video ! And thank you for NOT adding any kind of music, just let us hear the quiet sound of woodworking without power tools.

What a joy to watch such a craftsman. He's so proficient that he makes the whole process look easier than it actually is. Absolutely no word or music required. His hands say everything. I'm a complete novice so tutorials like these are so valuable and appreciated. Looking forward to seeing more of the same. Many thanks 👍
