Your gateway into carving; one of the most therapeutic bushcraft skills. This kit is packed full of high-quality tools and resources, including wooden blanks. It includes everything needed to master the art of spoon carving! The Hook Knife: The hook knife was specifically designed for craftspeople. Its curved blade excels in crafting concave cuts, making it ideal for sculpting spoons and bowl bowls. Manufactured from Stainless Steel, the blades have good edge retention. The barrel-shaped handles are easily gripped and have been sanded and oiled with natural mineral oils. An excellent introductory hook knife, built to last through countless projects. The Carving Knife: One of the best all-around carving knives; the narrow blade is perfect for accessing tight areas and making tight turns. This knife is also manufactured from Stainless Steel and includes the same barrel-shaped handle. Again, this is an excellent introductory carving knife. Leather Strop & Polishing Compound: A sharp knife is essential for carving; it makes the process more efficient and enjoyable. A dull blade also demands extra force, raising the risk of slips and injuries. The leather strop and polishing compound are used to refine and maintain your knife's edge. The polishing compound is an abrasive substance that can be applied to the strop for better results. We make the strops from genuine cowhide leather offcuts. Spoon Blanks & Leather Thimbles: The spoon blanks are crafted from a variety of wood types including English Cherry, Poplar/Tulip, Pine, and Spruce. They deliberately follow a rough shape to allow for ample practice in shaping the handles. We have also included two leather thimbles for your index and thumb fingers. The leather is pretty flexible and will accommodate most finger sizes. Sharpening Stones: We've included three different grades of sandpaper and a wooden dowel for honing the hook knife. Additionally, a compact synthetic diamond sharpening stone is also included for the carving knife. Knife Disclaimers: The knives come sharp enough to use. Although, we recommend some prior sharpening before use for best results. The knives are easily sharpened with most kitchen knife sharpening tools. If you have any sharpening questions, we are happy to help. Instructions & Box All of the components are neatly packed into a card box. Detailed instructions on kraft cards are also included with how-to video links using the components of the kit. Remember, practice makes perfect! Don’t get discouraged if you find it challenging at first. With time and patience, you’ll improve your whittling skills and create beautiful spoons.
