Your sense of professionalism and kindness is evident in all your videos. Congratulations. You are doing a great service to woodcarving.

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Thank you! You are a nice dude!!

[@loribrooks6736]

Always appreciate your honesty of products Alec!

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Thank you Lori!

[@stephenkendall6108]

I have a lot from beavercraft and I have carved a lot with them. They are great to get started and see if you really want to carve and not have a lot invested. They take a little work but they take a kicking and keep on ticking. 😊

I used to carve cottonwood bark in Alaska…..can’t find it here in lower 48. Also….born with talent or learned by hours of practice….you are definitely AN ARTIST! Amazing work and videos! Thank you!

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Thank you very much!

[@jtandroid6718]

Just picked one of these up from Amazon UK as they are on offer right now.. for the price of 2 pints of beer it's worth a shot. I have better knives but always looking for a beater that I can use with sticks/found wood that doesn't really matter. Thanks for the video!

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

There you go!! My pleasure!

[@aaronlinch7621]

Do you have a link to the knife on UK Amazon? @jtandroid6718

[@buddyweaver607]

Alec. I purchased 10 of these knives to build kits to teach Boy Scouts Woodcarving. They have worked out great.

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Very cool!

[@johnduffy6546]

Good ole dependable Murphy knives!...I like the Solingen knives

[@leoamattnet4822]

Love knife reviews!

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Thanks

[@fngrusty42]

Bought one . Found it just a bit thick . Sanded it down to a flat blade. It's a lot better. I have an occ that I really like so I use it. But it's twice the price . It a great little knife I just have a favorite.

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Good idea!

[@bushna2007]

Seems like a good beginner knife, especially learning to sharpen the blade.

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Yes!

[@michealwagnon2444]

WCI great magazine. I have every coping as subscriber day one

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

That’s great! Wow

[@lesliecrowther7004]

High Alec, I know your talking about the knife and yes very informative, restyled handles and blades are usually a good thing, better to use and a great learning curve but, my attention was was also drawn to the carving in the background ?? Looks pretty dam good, christ child or cherub 👼 🤔. Looks good, definitely a master craftsman Sir. Cheers Les.

[@AlecLaCasseArt]

Thank you Les! It’s going to be a crucifix!

[@lesliecrowther7004]

@AlecLaCasseArt Alec, I certainly hope that, when completed you will be showing us the fruits of your labour's. I recon it's going to be one heck of carving on completion and something for all to see 👀. Cheers Les.
