Not a pencil line in sight. All by eye and in less than 20 minutes. My dad was the same. You sir, are a true craftsman and that spoon is beautiful. I enjoyed every minute of this video - thank you.

Nah, watch the cuts carefully, he replaces the work in his hands with something he prepared earlier, that's why he just hacks away with the axe and makes a lot of wood chips. It's all wood chips and mirrors. I am joking.... obviously

Hook-knife? That’s not a hook-knife... THIS is a hook-knife! 😂

Just fantastic, Barn. There is nothing simple about making a simple spoon with such grace and economy of movement. Well done.

Please good Sir! Moar silent carving!!! I love watching your work and it got me into spoon carving myself. I like going back to those silent carving clips to compare and revise my carving style. Please consider making more videos like this.

Who needs a shaving horse or clamps when you have hands the size of catcher’s mitts? Phenomenal work, great videos!

So glad to see another episode of this. Please keep making these videos, it is really worth it :)

I love watching his work. Excellent job.

I watch these videos to fall asleep to, the sound of the carving and wood shaving is so calming to me

Great work. It's just unbelievable in which short time you can carve so beautiful spoons. So impressive! Best wishes :)

A Master for sure. I find this simple shape one of the hardest to get right. Three Cheers for Barn!

Fantastic a true master, I could watch for hours a pleasure to see such skill.

I'm proud to own one of these fine spoons. I feel medieval every time I use it. Thank you Barn!

I could watch this aaaaaall day!

Dry nice. Thanks for showing us and take care.

so skilled and accurate with that hatchet! It looks like it's paper sharp too.

This is by far my favorite spoon design and artisan

Every time I watch this, I pick up something new. Great job, Barnaby!

I have waited sooooooo long! Thank you

Perfect. Simple and practical design, perfect execution. Much better is not possible. LG Miesegrau

Awesome! Favourite one yet!

Loved this what a beautiful shape ,a master at work thankyou.

Lovely work, what a craftsman!

Nice job, Beautiful. 👏👏👏👏

Wow thank you. You have some real talent mate.

You are Truly Blessed with a Beautiful Talent!

Fantastic work.

Love these videos.

Absolutely beautiful to watch such a talented craftsman. I could watch this all day. Thanks Barn. Is that a specially commissioned crook knife? Where could I get one from?

Looking like you have done this before . Most excellent work I have ever seen . Thank you for sharing this .

Superb craftmanship

I have been seeing your videos. You must upload more often. This is very good work.

Love it!!

Mesmerising; zen and the art of watching a spoon appear from a lump of wood as if by magic.

Nice job. Very good.

Beautiful. only one word.

Oh my god ... you have an impressive manuality ... very very beautiful object

So beautiful

You are TRULY a master craftsman, Barn. Could you tell me what kind of wood that you used for this one?

Geat to see you Ban...are you at the bushcraft show this year ?

I have a feeling he's done this before.....Man I just want a big dang bowl of stew right now.

also speechless!!

That wood looks so soft.

If this is u 4 years ago? I can’t imagine your skills today. I remember Robin Wood’s first blog posts about you…

Nice axe technique!

It looks like white birch (Betula pendula). You can see the bark for a second in the beginning and the close-up shots at the end show the typical grain of birch wood.

Well i would like to know what knife he is using to hog out that spoon. Its cutting across the grain like butter but could be his mad sharpening skills...what angle do you have on there man? And bam! Why didnt i think of using a hatchet to hog out the shape first....seems a no brainer...and man what a hook knife! Custom made? I wonder if pfiel/swiss made makes one like that

Subscribed! Where can I sign up for classes?

Fanastic video. Where could I get tools for spoon carving?

That twca cam sure makes short work of the interior on the bowl! ;)

Hi, very nice video, could you tell me what kind of axe do you used ?

Barn makes it look easy.

That is some really awesome work ... truely a master piece ;-) I don't know if "spoon club" accepts wishes ??!, but if you do mine would be "silent carving - the soup spoon" many many thanks for showing and PLEASE keep up the good work, and let the video's come floating like a river ... ;-))

Hi Terrain - thanks for your kind words - it's great you enjoyed the video. This is just a small selection of the videos we have over at spoonclub.co.uk - we have over 100 hours of videos with new ones released every week!

May I ask what type of axe you’re using? Is it a single-bevel or double?

Beauityful work. I have a question. What wood you use?

What’s wood is? Thanks

Шедевральная работа...

Sorry for asking. I'm a newbie. Is the wood from which you make spoons freshly cut, wet or dry, seasoned? Happy new year 2024.

What treatment do you use to protect it?

Where can I get a hook knife that size?

Wow! Amazing skills 👌 how old and wet is the wood though? Also what species of tree?

Hi Andy - thanks so much! The wood will always be green - in the case of this spoon, it's Birch

Hi Ed - this is a Twca Cam made by Ben Orford

So I got a lot of birch for spooncarving. Today I split a log and when carving I noticed dark spots and streaks in the wood... some green or brownish... these spots are about as big as a nails head, anyone knows what this might be?

Spoon club I has your book its my bible very great work and my favorite spoon hat off to you good sir but what's the wood being used ? 👍🐾🐺:-) ❤

hi, I enjoyed to watch showing your wonderful skills. Can ou tell me where to get such a great hook knife?

Usually those are custom made knives. I'm planning on making a couple myself, because right now i'm using Mora and it's not the best one. It's ok as a starter knife, but gives my finger some bad blisters;) Try to google "hook knives" or "wood carving knives" and check for some local blacksmiths making them. I don't remember the website, but i know there were a few in UK making those tools.

What finish would you use for a spoon like that? Something like linseed oil or beeswax?

@SpoonClub

Hi Timothy - Barn generally uses tung oil to finish his spoons - hope this helps!

Every time I watch one of these I curse myself for jumping straight into working with reclaimed wood, and not spending more time on green wood carving... that said, the upside is that I've been forced to get a lot stronger than I might have been otherwise! (Not that wood quality is everything, but even with my tools blisteringly sharp I sometimes have to work so much harder to get clean cuts like these).
