  Great vid! I bought myself a spoon knife from beavercraft and right away noticed how skinny/narrow the handle was in my hand. Didn't like it. So I made a new handle from a piece of a hickory garden shovel handle. Now it's perfect

  Basswood is most commonly used and is preferred for a nice and easy wood to carve

  I havent changed mine out in ovet a year. Even if it looks dark it is still working :) But, some add more, I personally remove and apply a fresh layer. If you have any more questions, this video may answer them! kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z4iola1mm7vOesY.html

  I think one type of cuts that everyone does, but it’s never mentioned, is the reverse/backwards push cut. It is made by turning the knife backwards and then pushing on it TOWARDS yourself with your thumb into the wood. Does not look safe, however, it seems it is the only way to get some areas. You and Linker do it in your videos. What are your thoughts about it?

• 
  @CarvingisFun3 күн бұрын

  I actually made a video on just this, but in short: with proper control, it is an extremely useful and powerful cut to use. Link to the video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gYF90LyAiLzWn9o.html

  @5:08-5:30 Cheap tools for beginners... I'm a professional knife sharpener and avid carver and have a different view on cheap for beginners. 👨‍🦳💁 Personally I feel cheap tools should be avoided at all costs, and I am very serious about this, and can give pages of reasons why cheap is a bad way to go. I would strongly suggest a "quality brand" to start with if "testing the waters" is your style (these are not high end, but quite acceptable) I like Flexcut as a quality entry, or a but lower and somewhat more clunky... Beaver Craft as the absolute lowest entry level tool. Of the two Flexcut sharpens more easily and holds a finer edge much longer, and tends to have a better heat treatment across their range of tools... this a going to become extremely important about 20 minutes into it as a beginner! Cheap tools are dangerously and get dull fast, they don't hold an edge and take forever to sharpen properly, and will go dull in a few minutes... THIS is where the craft is loosing people and getting beginners wounded more than anything else. 🤨🤬🤬 For beginners both brands mention above offer various intro kits and have quite acceptable steel and acceptable heat treating.. and you can mix them as you grow to cover gaps in tool sizes or handle types and shapes without having wasting loads of money, plus the resale is better than cheap knockoffs! 💁 TBH I feel Flexcut is a big step up from Beaver Craft and it will be noticeable after only a few hours. The quality and kind of steel and heat treatment is where the magic really happens for any knife of any kind... and literally for any cutting tool, too ignore this "for a beginner" or misunderstand why a five piece "professional set from Pfeil or Two Cherries" is vastly superior to a trunk load of cheap aZon knockoffs is too ultimately not understand why quality and precision matters. That said, as a sharpener I would much rather see a beginner buy a basic entry one or three piece kit from Pfiel's quality steel than a truckload of Schaaf... it will be the same price and their quality experience will determine the outcome to continue the craft or abandon it more accurately.

• 
  @CarvingisFun10 күн бұрын

  You could, but some woods are harder than others, requiring more patience. Larger projects benefit from having chisels and gouges as well to make things faster.

• 
  @CarvingisFun7 күн бұрын

  I actually do! It is considerably harder than the basswood I use on the channel for tutorials, but the end result is absolutely fantastic. It will require you to keep your carving tools extremely sharp and hone them on a strop more often, but with some patience, you will get a durable and beautiful pieof work! You will also have to use patience and focus on small cuts, but in the end it is worth it.

  I bought the Old Timer Spinter a while ago and I've never used it because the grinds are just junk and I'd have to do significant regrinding to get it in working order. The slipjoint action sucks too, it just generally doesn't inspire much confidence. I'd definitely recommend saving money and getting a proper tool if you want the gouge capability, otherwise a simple little pocket knife would be a better buy.

  Do you have any clue if you could get bigger pieces of wood anywhere? All I find is the premade small sized from 2 by 2 or up to 4 and a lenght of maybe 15 centimeter, due to this it has insane prices. I would love to just buy a big block and saw out smaller pieces myself, I assume that would be cost efficient if you got the tools. But Im unable to find a place that sells that.
