    Thank you Ben! Glad to have you back putting out content. I've been enjoying one of your crook knives for a couple years and it's great stuff! Saving and planning for some more purchases as time and projects come.

    That is just fantastic in every of its facets. Nothing ugly our ancestors did in every bit of how they worked and what their work produced. Timeless, ultimate technique. Fantastic demonstration and explanation.

    This is exceptionally skilful work, I wish all children had the opportunity to try this kind of thing.

    • @BenOrford
      @BenOrford  Před rokem

      Well it’s certainly a lot easier to get into this kind of craft than conventional wood work as everything you need you can make. Glad you enjoyed it. cheers Ben

    Thanks so much for the tutorial on how to properly use a draw knife. I haven't been angling my draw knife but I will from now on. I will also emulate your "flat side" technique as well. Thanks so much for your time, expertise and sharing your experience in this excellent video!!! Also, I'm enamored with your shave horse......hopefully you will share the dimensions at some point in time. Many thanks again for this tremendous video!!!

    Thank you so much for your very informative video. I will try the process for making a mallet since I am a new green woodworker at best. I think I like the shave horse design you use. Is it easy to carve spoons with it, too? Do you have any plans for building it? Or would you recommend any special literature or website to learn about its construction? Thank you.

  • @Over_The_Hill_Phil
    @Over_The_Hill_Phil Před 5 lety

    Hi, Great videos, very informative. I'm a newby when it comes to shavehorses and green woodwork, and have a question. you said that your drawknife has a slight curve to it, to get flat cuts? How does that work as my first thought was it would put a slight curve?

  • @scottleft3672
    @scottleft3672 Před 6 lety +2

    square, schampfer then schampher the schampher....till curved....as with stone and steel.

    So, what is a neck knife? ha, ha; you mean a neck tie?

    • @BenOrford
      @BenOrford  Před 6 lety

      Seth Warner I was wearing one of our Nomad friction folders in a neck sheath. Really great compact knife 👍

    • @sethwarner2540
      @sethwarner2540 Před 6 lety

      Great! What a great idea! Always out of the way no matter what youre doing, yet at your finger-tips in a moment. The only improvement I can think of is, a knife that opens with one hand, or, I suppose a sheath knife. Thank you for clear, detailed demos. Your accent does NOT take away from explanations, and I for one, can see/hear that the things you present are skills you have had for a long time; not just to teach on you tube, but before you tube came on the scene!

    • @BenOrford
      @BenOrford  Před 6 lety

      thanks thats great glad you enjoyed the video, as regard to the Nomad you can operate it one handed, thats what makes it such a great knife.
