New carver blades started

[Weekend_Warrior]

Hmmm I like all the differing styles - what are the different uses of each? Which would I select for a kuksa bowl for example?

beveled and bent up the big one

pointy and sharp it will be





fitted to a long handle and used like a canoe paddle this should remove a lot of wood fast

any spoon knife will do a Kuska but its how long it takes

the Adze i did so it would speed up the hollowing then clean up with the antler handled Crooked knife with a full curved blade

the hadjia blades arent particularly good at hollowing tight internal curves as they have internal bevels but will do shallower bowls versions with external bevels would work like a double sides spoon knife

the antler crooked knife is an internal bevel balde but single sided means it can be thinner and ive put a relief bevel on the back to make it good at turning in an internal cut
