Good question I would like to know that 😊

You are quite correct! I was also hoping to see some sharpening going on, but only saw the guy stropping. That is the final step - which is not at all sharpening!

Thanks for the sub!

Hi Pieter, I have played around with lots of different woods, I think air dried Mahogany would work, I only had some old kiln dried and it was a bit too dry, I did two Warders in it but I wasn’t happy, the Cherry just carved so much nicer in my experience and you can hold very good detail which is critical especially on pieces like the back of the Kings chair. I have found with the Cherry that carving it and leaving it in UV light before waxing darkens the wood considerably as it’s quite light when freshly carved. As for the white pieces I found that, although easier to carve Bass Wood (Lime here in the UK) just wouldn’t hold the detail required which is why I finally settled on Sycamore Wood, again it also helped that I have an abundance of Air dried sycamore here. Hope that helps. Paul HWC

@@thehairywoodcarver Thank you so much for sharing your experience ! As a beginner I have only a little bit of experience now with bass wood, but I can already see what you mean regarding it's ability to hold detail . I will try some other woods ! Thanks again !! Would still love to see you working on the detailed figures such as a king or knight !!

Thanks a lot 👍 Glad you are getting on with the Pelican Knife, I suspect I will be using my smaller one for this one at some point, they just seem to get to places straight knives just can’t get to some times! 👍

Yes it does add to the grip, like the look of it, can see all my knives getting this treatment 😁

Couldn’t agree more, continual learning is one of the best bits 👍👍

It’s Einaudi: Experience (if I have spelt it correctly!!) 😂

Thank you Richard, really appreciate that 🙏😊👍👍

Indeed!

Thank you so much 😊 🙏

It’s a KZbin thing apparently to do with Licensing on shorts, annoying isn’t it!
