i haven't carved the bowl because, i do not own a hook knife, but once funds allow i will finish it off and linseed oil it
It's the boiled linseed that you can't use as its got other stuff added, but raw linseed is what I use. It takes a good few weeks to fully harden but i was using mine before then, you just get a slight taste of the oil, which was fine.
Walnut oil works well, but only as long as the person using it doesn't have a nut allergy!
excellent to watch but the problem i have is, ive recently moved bk to the uk from cyprus and have no tools to make such a knife.Which is a a massive dissapointment to me but thanks for the link bud
