Two shades to every carver.

I made myself a new carver, a Bergstrom blade that I got from Brisa, I have quite a bit of Laburnum wood, so I got a nice bit that shows of the heart and sap wood for the handle.

I had a quick go with it this evening and its a great blade, very sharp and keeps a good edge.
I like the blades Gunnar makes. they are made from Udderholm 1770 spring steel HRC 60.
I think I might get some more in the future.

oooo, that's nice. I've got lots of laburnum too, but it is still too moist to work with for now.

 

[whats wrong with you all]

Looks brilliant, I absolutely love that handle Might have a hunt for some Laburnum wood!

Simon thats a lovely little knife I love the wood and it looks like a great user. I have made a knife with a bergstrom blade and it was a fine blae.

Very good mate, I make knives too and I was thinking about a stamp with just my initials on which are the same as yours, weird ehh. Very good effort.
