Traditional Skills: Hand Carved Maple Wood Spoon

Carving a serving spoon from some sugar maple branch wood, using a hatchet, straight knife and a twca cam. If you have any questions, let me know in the comments.

Wow so inspiring! Greetings from Argentina.

Ahh, relaxing. So good to see you back on the Tube. Every time I watch one of your videos, I pick up new nuances.

[@SylvaSpoonvideos]

Thanks! Are there any specifics you're interested in seeing in a video?

[@bluesideup007]

@@SylvaSpoonvideos Perhaps different styles of spoons for eating, serving, and deep pot cooking. I have learned a lot from watching (3-4x)your video on how small can you make a spoon blank. I'm still trying to figure out the proper angle of the crank, when is it too much, etc. I have also recently been experimenting with moving the crank back to where the handle first meets the bowl. The first 30 spoons I made 4 years ago all had the crank wrong and the bowls too deep. Also, using only a Sloyd knife, hook knife and axe would be nice, since most of us don't have a bowl gouge or Twca cam. Many thanks!

A few questions.... Where did you source the large hook knife and the Sloyd knife? Also, is that dry or green wood? Thanks in advance!

[@SylvaSpoonvideos]

The hook knife is from Hans Karlsson and the sloyd knife is from Nic Westermann. It's green wood.
