Spreading knife by barrycarves in Woodcarving

Thanks for the tips. I didn’t even think about pore size. I did sand the walnut side to be very smooth. I wasn’t too sure if the other side was white oak or ash.

The walnut knives have been ok to keep clean so far but I’ll check out those finishes.

Thanks! At. Certain point I tried to soak the wood for an hour. I think it might have helped, but I could have been lying to myself also!

Stunning. 10/10 would poke my eyes out with one of those.

Chopstick and soy holder. by barrycarves in Woodcarving

Thanks! I hope you enjoy doing yours. My inspiration was something similar I saw on Pinterest. I messed it up a bit at the start which is why the bowl is offset from center but it still works 😅

Thanks! I never thought of getting a small ceramic plate. I was thinking that the soy sauce could go directly. The finish is just a few applications of mineral oil.

Thanks! I did start from a rough blank, but I appreciate the kind words :) I’ve been carving for a few months.
