I been curious about the flexcut sloyd products. I have some flexcut tools that I for whittling but I prefer mora sloyd knives to the straight flexcut blades for many things especially spoon carving. Interested in maybe hearing your take.
joshua covey to be honest I’ve not used it as much as I have the hook knives and the Spoon Carvin’ Jack. We are finally settling into our new shop, and I was just thinking of doing a video this week. I will work on putting together something using the sloyd. I will say, for the applications I’ve used it for it has worked great. I’ve used it for hollowing some shallow bowls and doing some other detail work where the fine tip worked best. I like the handle, the blade is quality, and like every other blade I’ve used from FlexCut, comes ready to work and only requires the occasional light stropping. Keep an eye out for a new video and I’ll try to get something done with the sloyd.
