Another one

[Two Socks]

Sorry about the kuksa-spam guys, but I wanted to share this one as well:

The lighter one is todays effort. I carved it after school, effectively ignoring my actual to-do-list. This one has not cracked (yet), most likely because I removed more pith than in the last one. I like the difference in colour that the oiling-treatment caused. The one on the left has had a couple of coats of walnut-oil. The one on the right will get the same treatment eventually. More pics on my blog again.

Thanks for looking!

They both look great, and I'm inspired to have a go myself

I like them, the one on the right in my opinion needs some work on the handle, rounding the end a bit or bevel the edge to make it neater, other than that good to go and use.

Thanks gents.

Hugo, you might be right. The handle is not so comfortale with the sharp ends either.

Nice! I like the walnut oil coating. You're getting me inspired to have a go, especially after having watched folk do them over the w/end at Northwood.
