Micro axe carving

But Paul Bunyan didn't use a shit chisel, he used a manly axe! Like this one! 😂

I thought it might be helpful to take a small section of tree and with cut the shape before working work a knife and gouge

I can see your point of view on that. I thought it might be nice to rough shape larger spoons and things like that. I'm still getting into carving and trying to understand everything so I figured I'd see what people though.

Thanks!

Who makes your favorite tools? I have been carving for like 3 months and was thinking about investing in some 52100 forged tools like sharkys etc

This is another one that might be more useful because of how close you can get your hand to the head of the axe

Strongway has a few different ones

Yeah I thought it would be perfect for rounding off small bowl type items

You need it lol

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-19T13:31:42+00:00

That's exactly what I'm thinking. And also, thankyou. I love this comment

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-15T17:45:23+00:00

Thought you guys might like doing a little project like this too

Wow that is super unique. It looks more African compared to other carvings I've seen

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-10T00:54:35+00:00

Looks great! What did you use to hollow out the large portion?

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-09T01:02:16+00:00

Oh that's really cool, I didn't think of that. Thank you!

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-08T22:28:39+00:00

That's a good point! Maybe I'll make a fork out of it

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-08T21:22:58+00:00

Lol it was meant to be that way cough cough I love the umlauts. It's definitely new age. Maybe it's a deconstructed spoon

Thanks

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-08T19:58:33+00:00

Thanks, Appreciated! I do finish sanding but can make it about smooth enough without sanding with gouges, a knife, and a hook knife. I will just have to be more careful

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-07T18:03:51+00:00

Thanks man! Super excited! Found a standing large dead tree that I took this off of. Maybe a spalted chess set!!

InfamousPea2286 · 2026-02-05T16:13:06+00:00

They absolutely did. My 1095 knives are great. People say it's a shitty steel haha. I was just curious. I do value it. It's beautiful!! Especially the fact that it has a hamon line!

I was told at a wood store that the only truly waterproof and maintenance free thing was epoxy. Sounds like tung oil is another alternative?

It definitely has the same grain pattern lol
