I love those Japanese Power Grip gouged. So handy for fine details.

Absolutely incredible job explaining! I greatly appreciate it. I’d love to carve some tick cottonwood like that.. the bark near me is very young and thin. Thanks again

Looks wonderful I make wood spirit bird houses but with power tools

Love it! Any recommendation on the carving knife? I have a few Helvies but I’m a little hesitant to use them on anything but my basswood. I have an OCCT 2” bench knife which would probably be fine but I notice you and Alec both tend to use some type of sloyd. Thoughts? I appreciate you.

[@bushna2007]

Very nice!!

[@charlesjackson6753]

I love your work and great instructions, what brand knife and model are you using, thank you charles

[@lucaskostwoodcarving]

Thanks Charles! This is a Japanese detailing knife from Lee Valley
