and some more spoons

[robin wood]

The Wood household is full of knives and woodchips at the moment, it seems to be that time of year with dark evenings and the fire going that makes us want to carve. Here are a few spoons just finished by Nicola and myself.

First is a plain serving spoon in "fiddleback" sycmore. I have quite a few bits of this wood dry if anyone wants any for knife handles, it is pretty hard to carve though.



This is one of our standard eating spoons made from a 2" diameter birch.



And these are two shots of my favourite a wonky, organic sort of spoon carved from a crook so the grain runs round the bowl.





All finished with a sharp knife and no sandpaper.
