    I make my own carving knives. I use old two man crosscut saws to make the blades. Anealing, hardening and tempering can all be done with a blowtorch, because the blades are so small. Shaping and beveling I do with a hacksaw, bench grinder or file, and wet and dry sandpaper on a piece of float glass. Its a skill worth learning, you can make whatever shape blade you can dream up.

    Thanks a lot for the information. I am new to the carving hobby and follow the informations from other carver with much experience. I used till now BLO after carving, let it a couple of days till to a week to soak in the wood. Acrylic paint stays on the surface very well... till I use the final finish. Apply Bee wax, no mather with what (fine piese of cloth or paintbrush hard ebogh for apply the wax) removed the some of the color (where the layer is thinner). It may be look oldish, but sometime I did not whant that. I also used water based lasure. Some results, color goes a little bit off. I first think, it is my fault, apply to much oil, did not wait long enough till the wood take the oil in, and so on. Till I saw this video of yours.

    What I think a lot of carvers get wrong so badly, is having too distinctive a step in feather groups. The cape one this bird just stands way too high. It does not appear like that in nature. To me the bill is also off, too heavy and the wrong shape . I am a bander and handle lots ofd wild birds. An art teacher told me, do not try to represent every feather or every hair.. Give instead the right impression.

The first item, perfect tool for small scale sculpts, making moulds requires a flat and even base to work on, this item has that at least. Moving on to 4:30, another clay useful thing!, especially the metal cutters ...quick and clean solution to cutting exact circles, and many other shapes from clay!.
