Spoon carving from a Bushcraft perspective with Jon Mac...
I am a spoon carver who lives and works on Dartmoor in Devon.
I carve spoons and Kuksa from green wood, using the three main bushcraft tools. The knife, Axe and hook knife. I find spoon carving gives me a greater understanding of these tools as I can demonstrate a precision of craft in the finished spoon. I have developed my own spoon carving knife 'The MaChris' which is made by 'Chris Grant' a fantastically talented bladesmith.

Spoon carving with Sean Hellman.

My friend Sean Hellman paid a visit yesterday.
Sean is the man behind Woodwright Designs.
He is a craftsman with a wide repertoire from spoons and fan birds up to big sculptural pieces.
Well I couldn't help but put the MacNic axe into his hot hairy hand as we talked about future plans and drank good coffee.

Sean and I had a great time.
He carved out a couple of spoons while I got to grips with hollowing out a kuksa.
