Making a Simple Spoon Carving Knife That Anyone Can Make

  • This is a simple project that anyone with a dremel can make.
    I wanted to carve a traditional wooden spoon but I had trouble carving it with a chisel. So I decided to make myself a hook knife.
    But, since I don't have a forge or a proper way to heat treat steel, I cheated a little by making it from an old wrench. This way the steel is already in the right shape for a spoon knife and properly hardened.
    The whole project is basically sharpening the ring of the spanner, and this can be done using a rotary tool, like a dremel. As handle I've used an old file handle I've picked a while back at the flea market.

    Too pass the time in the field when I was a Drill Sergeant, I would widdle random pieces of wood I found in the woods of glorious Fort Benning, GA.
    I damn near lost not one, but two fingers in numerous attempts to carve a spoon. I stayed bloodies & bandaged most of my two years on the trail. I still have a scar, and I proudly display the final spoon I widdled, right next to my hat.

    This is quite innovative and nifty. I am a newbie woodcarver. A decent quality scope will easily cost around $60. A very high quality custom made from U.K. with specialized steel etc. runs close to $ 200!
    Biggest issue with the curved gauge and the scope is sharpening and maintaining the sharp edge. Quality of the hand carved spoon or the bowl dramatically changes when a (razor)sharp tool is used compared to a average sharper tool. The design made by this U tuber is interesting and functional. Will it hold its sharp edge?
    Congratulations for upscaling and using your imagination. At least you did not bring in the forging.

    • @BrassLock
      @BrassLock 5 років тому +2

      +@Leo Cashmore: Where I live, we can buy a suitable ring spanner for twenty Baht. That equates to about eighty cents Australian. So I'm sure the spanner won't mind having an exciting life as a treasured spoon carver, placed in an important location next to the chisels. Far better life than covered in grease, bumping around in a rusty toolbox with all the other spanners (including the much despised open-ended spanners), and the mis-used -shifty- shifting spanners.

    • @BrassLock
      @BrassLock 5 років тому

      @Leo Cashmore In the video it does look as if he's taken a really good spanner from his wall rack. But I suspect that by sleight-of-hand he substituted the really good one for an El cheapo one, judging by the streaky marks on the handle. As long as the spanner is a forged chrome-vanadium cheapo, it should be hard enough to make a few spoons. If it were me doing this carver by grinding with a rotary tool, I'd heat it to red heat and let it cool slowly before grinding, then heat treat to harden & temper after finishing. But he said he has no way of heating it to alter it's properties or to forge it.

    For those complaining about the amount of tools used, you could achieve the same result with a hacksaw, a couple files, some sandpaper and a lot of extra time and patience. The rotary tool would definitely speed things up and an older one with a couple attachments wouldn’t cost much at all. Be resourceful!
