Another First Spoon Thread

[Jinsin456]

Was in the woods with Tam (Barn Owl) and he kindly lent me a spoon knife to get me started on my first spoon. It's made from silver birch and was made mostly with a husqvarna hatchet and Tams crook knife. Started sanding it tonight but it's not quite dry enough so going to leave it a couple of days to fully dry and then fully sand it, there's a few tool marks but I learnt a lot for the next one

I started with the first one four months ago , now I'm at around number seventy something !
They say it all starts with the first one and before you know it you end up with a case of SCD (Spoon Carving Disorder) !

Nice one Scott.

Looks good Scott, certainly a lot better than my first effort. Or indeed my latest effort, just can't seem to get them right, anywhere near right

Great first spoon. I carved my first one recently (from the WRONG type of wood I hasten to add!), and now I have the bug! Keep up the great work

Great first spoon, look forward to seeing some more.

what oil are you going to use once its been finished sanded or are you leaving it just a wood finish?
