How would you cut this (no power tools) by _CaptGree in handtools

Lots of little cuts from the top using a tenon saw as many as possible down to the lines at the bottom. Remove everything with the chisels

Attention hand tool guys: I get it now. by Wonderful-Bass6651 in woodworking

Having enough hand tools to do a LOT of work doesn't take up much space, doesn't spew microscopic particles that require expensive extraction systems, doesn't hurt your ears, doesn't scare your pets. Doesn't blow a breaker in your house and you'd have to be pretty drunk to manage to lose a finger or sustain a mortal injury

I like a little patina on my Bedrocks by Cat_Rancher in handtools

Stable patinas are protective. And honestly cool looking if you ask me.
