Why We Like It

This kit provides a practical combination of tools that allows you to take a project from a rough blank through to a finished carving. The addition of the carving axe makes processing larger stock significantly easier, while the hook knife and carving knife handle the finer shaping and finishing work.

If you've been looking for a complete introduction to spoon and kuksa carving, this kit offers an excellent starting point.

We recommend only sharpening hook knives on the inside edge as you have a flat registration point to work with. The outside of the blade has a convex surface from the tip to heel as well as from the edge to the spine which means that there is a complexity to could lead to headaches if you get it wrong.

Regular stropping however on the inside edge using a dowel with stropping compound and a stropping paddle for the outside edge is a great way to maintain a keen edge for longer before you will even need to think about resharpening your hook knives.
