Knocked up a serving spoon out of a piece of Beech earlier today, most of the work was done with the axe initially, with just the hollowing and fine shaping work being done with more refined tools.

I was going to try and sell this one once it had dried and the final refining had been done, but it's been collared by my parents, as they think it will go well with some of the other wooden items we use on the Christmas table and it matches the Beech cabinets in the kitchen, still some way to go on it before it finished though

Nice work mate, as always!
Nice pattern to that beech!
No bushcrafting the last week or two for me as been busy.
Got operation on my hand Monday, so could be out of action for a while, other than bimbles!:p

@Toddy - yup those knots were a pain, but worth the effort for the aesthetic appeal they give

Could be worse Kepis, he might offer to make us pancakes, remember last time he made them.
Nice spoon, no sanding I notice. :)
