Best I can do is find this link to spoon carving techniques on the Pinewood Forge website - about 2/3 of the way down - it's called the scissor cut on there

Imageine you're holding your knife with the thumb on the flat of the blade, edge pointing towards your knuckles

This uses the big muscle groups in the shoulders to effect the cut so is very powerful (these muscules get used a lot when sculling, so my cuts are veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery powerful :rolmao: )

Thanks for the site and info. :You_Rock_

I was really disapointed with my North Star and so i contacted Mike directly and detailed my experience with the knife.
He responded very quickly and has assured me he will sort it out.
Seems like a very genuine guy.

"It does sound like you got a pretty rough knife.
PM me your address. I have just the solution.
As to the sheath. It was only something to ship the knife in until the proper sheaths are ready. That sheath was actually designed for the Highland. the proper sheaths will be another two weeks. I don't think that the knife you recieved is typical of our knives.
