Tea Spoons

[Kepis]

Had a couple of really nice days down in my part of the world, so ive sat out in the garden whittling away wearing just a t-shirt and a pair of shorts, even got a bit of a sun tan

Made these, all tea spoons, the largest is 5 inches long the smallest 4 inches, all made from cherry apart from the pointed one in the middle which is from birch

Have a few more blanks in progress.

The weather has been lovely here too.
Been outside doing a bit of friction fire lighting practice all day and now my arm hurt

and nice spoons you got there Kepis I really like the patterns in the cherry wood.

Nice spoons been nice here also its funny how fast people get into it though I went to pick the girls up from school today and there was a group of young lads walking up the road with shirts off and shorts on

Typical lovely day yesterday , but when I am "working from home " today thick fog and cold

Cracking spoons by the way

out of interest what tools did you use

Beautiful work.

I think I might have to have a go at this carving lark...

Nice bit of craftsmanship there, Kepis. Very nice.
What tools did you use, if I may ask?

 

[Kepis]

Tools used were a bog standard Clipper knife and a spoon knife and a bit of fine sand/flour paper, that was all

Nice work Kepis. Where is your spoon knife from? Looks nice

It's made by Ben Orford, not cheap, but imo worth every penny http://www.woodsmoke.uk.com/p/v//Shop/Bushcraft+tools/

 

[craeg]

Thanks mate I will check it out....Might be tempted. Have you owned a Frost's spoon knife and if so how does this compare with the Ben Orford?

 

[Kepis]

I have a couple of Frosts spoonies, good bits of kit tbh, i get on better with the Ben Orford one though for small spoons etc as it has a tighter radius on the blade, the Frosts one i use for larger bits of carving
