Very nice Ben. Came back to watch it again.
Great lesson with very clear direction, I learned a lot! Thank you
So pleased you liked the video and found it useful. Many thanks for the feedback
Happy carving
cheers Ben
I like making spoons, made quite a few of them. Think I will be making them better after watching this video. Thanks for that.
the best spoon carving tutorial i have had the pleasure to watch . a great refresher for me , am lookin forward to getting out there with my axe tomorrow thank you for sharing your skills
Very high quality of video and lessons overall. Very educational. Keep it up. Thumbs up
Ii just ordered carving tools to make spoons and cups. You video was great. Thank you.
Excellent video. Definitely the most helpful one I have watched. Thanks so much for this!
Great video, very useful information, professionally done.
As a newbie, I have to say that this is one of the most helpful videos I've seen. Great work.
Starting now, I feel the same way.
Same here, best tutorial so far. Well done!
Clear, concise, just what I needed.
Same here. Hes good.
Agreed - very simple, useful and immediately practical. I love the emphasis on safety.
What a fantastic video. Information delivered perfectly. Almost could not believe that it was 20 minutes long. Kept me interested from start to finish.
Very thorough, thank you. This is what I expect from an instructional video.
Perfect length, no fluff, well edited, and fantastic information. One tip I'd add for beginners would be to carve the bowl first. This might assist when correcting overcut in the bowl.
Great explanation , thanks .
Watched this with my 5 yr old daughter and she was interested throughout, now wants to Make spoon with me this weekend !!!
Awesome
Cheers
Rob
she is porobably already on tiktok.
A real treat to watch. It’s so nice to see a demonstration where the presenter isn’t in love with the sound of his own voice and just gets on with the job. Thank you for a really inspirational video.
Really appreciate the craft, but also the safety lessons. Makes me more confident. Thanks, Ben.
Holy cow, your axe work is good.
Wish I'd seen this video before i tried to make my first spoon. I made so many mistakes. Thanks for sharing.
Well glad to enjoyed the video and has given you some good tips. Happy carving. cheers Ben
This is the video that I have been looking for! You answered a lot of my questions. Thank you so much!
You are an excellent teacher. Really clear advice and demonstration. I feel like I could actually make this spoon. Obviously my axe control is nothing like yours. Thanks for the video
Absolutely brilliant video.
Fantastic video, always enjoy your videos Ben, keep up the good work.
Very educational. You should be very proud. Thank you to everyone who helped made this. It will benefit so many others.
Excellent video. Very informative, concise, yet comprehensive. Subscribed...
Very well explained! Thank you so much.
Really good video! well explained. Lots of interesting pointers. But take care of your back!
That was a pure pleasure to watch. Thank you, Ben.
Hi Ben, this is probably the best instructional video about spoon carving I have seen yet! Thank you for not only showing technique but also highlighting safety aspects of handling axe and knife!
Ben, I don't know about carving spoons but I know about backs! Your lower back will give you problems in a few years. You need to raise your chopping block so you're not bent over so much. Try and stand as straight up as possible. Nice vid and lots of advice, most on the safest way of cutting. Give your lower back some consideration as well.
BOY! can I agree with that! At 69 I'm really paying for it big time. Now if I bend over for even a few minutes, I'm feeling for the next hour or two. Save your back now and you won't have to pay for it later.
Thanks for the tutorial, I do a bit of metal and woodwork, so I'm gonna try this out. Also, the safety are excellent. Not only do you know what you are doing, but you're making sure we do too.
A highly enjoyable tutorial, thank you!
Ben, this is the best tutorial on how to make a spoon on CZcams!!!! Excellent!
fantastic! you are a very good teacher. i enjoyed watching you but now i'll be watching it again doing it. thank you so much for this.
Cheers for Canada!
Well done; clear and concise. You’re a fine teacher.
Hi Ben, excellent tutorial, just the right information well explained.
Ben...really enjoyed watching your artistry!!! Thanks for all the great info. I'm looking forward to making one myself. Rusty
love how you consistently mentioned the safety info.
This is probably the best introduction to soon carving I have seen!
On of the best spoon carving videos ever! You are really trying to keep it as simple as possible also for people who have English not as their mother tongue ;-) Always one eye on the safty and and the other one on the result! I'm starting my business with spoons and bowls right now in Sweden and I'm very glad, I found you here on CZcams! By the way - great homepage! Greets from the North, Peter!

Thank you, great work.
Brilliant. Fantastic video and very well made. Keep up the good work
I really enjoyed your video.
It is a very good explanation in every step of working. I watched a lot of videos about spooncarving, but yours is really the best.
Thanks a lot !
100% great industry we need in GREAT BRITAIN HOME BREED of HUMAN but their are good in ALL REMEMBER THAT KIRSTY we need traditional skills 🙂
Hi Ben, thank you for making such a great tutorial. I've been struggling with spoon carving but your video just answered a lot of questions. Also, the quality of the image is great. Very appreciated!
Great job...we need to learn more about those usefull skills than what we learn at skool...Thanks
Beautifully demonstrated and explained. A pleasure to watch. Thank you!
I've just purchased my first Crooked knife and I"m about to start learning to make spoons and bowls. This tutorial is my starting point. Thank you very much for it.
Great video. You explained each cut and hand position exceptionally well. Love your teaching style.
A perfect briefing on how to carve a spoon made of wood.
Very helpful advises! Thank you!
Great job, many thanks. Picked up some excellent points and will be returning from time to time to refresh my memory as I start my first.
Beautifully demonstrated and explained. A pleasure to watch. Thank you!
wow Ben, you are really didactic and professional. thanks for sharing so good tips.
8:30 pure skill
Thank you. That is the BEST instructional video I have seen.
Great lesson, thank you for sharing it. I bought some carving knives from you several years back. They have much longer handles than the one you're using for carving the bowl in this video. I cannot remember what you called them years back. It struck me as a Native American name. Just found the name by scrolling down your list of spoon carving videos: Mocotaugan is the word I was looking for. When you get to 73, the remembering gets a bit tougher. Thanks again for the fine video.
So pleased you enjoyed the video.
Sure the Mocotaugan is an amazing tool. Love the history behind them. Many thanks cheers Ben
Very good video. Easy to understand and very helpful. Thanks...subscribed.
I often remind myself how you work (and watch you videos when its cold in the workshop) and how its inspired me.
I often find I have gone off at a tangent over the year.... lol and a quick reminder really helps (and I cut faster funnily enough)
awesome video.
Excellent instruction without waffle. Thank you.
Wow that hatchet is scary sharp! Great vid. Thanks Ben👍
Ben is such a hero! Would love a ladle and bowl (hand tools.. not from lathe) instructional videos
This was a fantastic video! great introduction into the world of green spoon carving. I really want to have ago at spoon carving, the idea of the beauty of the everyday is something I believe in very strongly with myself training to become a potter making functional tableware for use in the home, and spoons like the one you made here are so beautiful not only in aesthetic but function as well! top notch stuff hope to be making spoons like that myself one day! hanks again.
Good lesson.
watched, liked, learned; bring on the revolution
THANK YOU
Outstanding video. Great techniques and well explained. Good job my friend. !! 👍👍
WONDERFUL thank you
Great instruction!! Thanks for the lesson. All the best from Canada.
Thanks so much for your time sharing your talent with us. Have a sunshine day.
Darlene
Beautiful
Thanks a lot!
Thank you, for showing how to carve a spoon. I enjoyed watching.
Hi Ben Congratulations on this 'safety first' demonstration. You are an experienced craftsman with the skills to transmit clearly to others. Excellent combination. Thank You. Sally, in France 🇫🇷 - Dorset Born. Itching to try this but will start with a spatula!
Hi Sally, many thanks for the comment and glad you found the video useful. Good luck with the spatula and if you need more help let us know. Happy carving, Cheers Ben
Great video. Very informative, coming from a beginner, myself.
Dude! Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing all your techniques, incredibly helpful and well thought out. Truly a master at this!
Ben, thank you for the great video!
Man...!! I just wanted to say great video... I had a blast checking this video out... And know Bc of you I have a general knowledge on how to make a spoon ... Thanks bro... Keep it up
Hi Ben Yep followed your example and split in half. Glad to know Hazel is ok! I planted 20 about 10 years ago + my hedgerow!! Herefordshire, this explains the beautiful view from your workshop. 😉
Just found this video and find it far superior to others on the same subject. In reviewing the comments I took note of one expressing concern with lower back issues using your axe technique. After 2 back surgeries I would not be able to use the axe as you have. But I will use your shaping instructional with a shaving horse and drawknife to allow me to stand up when I finish. Ha
Why am I watching this? It's amazing!
great job！👍
Really enjoyed the vid. May have to give this a try. I thoroughly enjoyed the accent also, I have a colleague from the UK that has the same accent. Thanks for the work.
Brilliant video Ben!
omg great no bullshit in depth guide
Thank you so much Ben - everything I need to get started. I really appreciate the generous spirit with which you have shared your knowledge!
No problem, really hope you found it useful and if you need any further help just ask. many thanks cheers, Ben
Fun to watch and a lot of safety tips! Thanks =)
I just started carving a spoon last night and ended up slicing nicely into my thumb, so it's very good to go back and see the proper techniques for it. Although the spoon does look a brilliant shade of brown now :)
It's really great to watch---and learn
Thanks Ben, this has been super helpful.
Hello!
Just subscribed to your channel. Very educational for bushy-learning and old school crafts.
Nice job, just the type of spoon shape I like. You did good on the details as well. The one thing I wish you had added at the end is some advice on treating the wood so it's food safe. (Because of the acids in some foods can get into the wood fibers.)
Really excellent informative video. Thank you!
Multicam FTW!
Nice job, looks great!
Great vid,love how you just use your axe and knive!
Fantastic Work & Spoon Dude. Great Video. Keep up the great work. Nick.

For anyone that needs a scandi ground knife for cheap go get mora knives. Great quality from Sweden for affordable price

Thank you I really like this video for practicing on carving spoons very nice tips on how to use the knive as well😁
