    Not a pencil line in sight. All by eye and in less than 20 minutes. My dad was the same. You sir, are a true craftsman and that spoon is beautiful. I enjoyed every minute of this video - thank you.

      Nah, watch the cuts carefully, he replaces the work in his hands with something he prepared earlier, that's why he just hacks away with the axe and makes a lot of wood chips. It's all wood chips and mirrors.
      I am joking.... obviously

      It looks like white birch (Betula pendula). You can see the bark for a second in the beginning and the close-up shots at the end show the typical grain of birch wood.

      Well i would like to know what knife he is using to hog out that spoon. Its cutting across the grain like butter but could be his mad sharpening skills...what angle do you have on there man? And bam! Why didnt i think of using a hatchet to hog out the shape first....seems a no brainer...and man what a hook knife! Custom made? I wonder if pfiel/swiss made makes one like that

      Usually those are custom made knives. I'm planning on making a couple myself, because right now i'm using Mora and it's not the best one. It's ok as a starter knife, but gives my finger some bad blisters;)
      Try to google "hook knives" or "wood carving knives" and check for some local blacksmiths making them. I don't remember the website, but i know there were a few in UK making those tools.

    Every time I watch one of these I curse myself for jumping straight into working with reclaimed wood, and not spending more time on green wood carving... that said, the upside is that I've been forced to get a lot stronger than I might have been otherwise! (Not that wood quality is everything, but even with my tools blisteringly sharp I sometimes have to work so much harder to get clean cuts like these).
