A comment on one of my videos suggested a sloyd knife for use in shaping saw handles and other tasks. Many RU-vid woodworkers also recommend them. I found one at a bargain price, that seems to be a good tool.

Thanks! I have got the same carving knife from Mora made in Sweden and not expensive.

Thanks for the video. I will look into getting one. I have been contemplating a whittling knife for a while.

I trimmed the handle down on this one a bit. I'll try to get a follow up later today.

Thought you would like that. Looks like a good knife.

Thanks. So far it's been pretty fun.

Hutsuls strops are great. Made in Ukraine & very high quality. This knife is garbage and mine did not come sharp. Their set of pen sized carving tools are cheap and dull as well. No good.

Thanks for the review. NOPE, NOT A MORA! I had to look that one up... Sk2 Steel? WOW defiantly worth looking into...if you are the sort of person who carves wood all day..that choice of steel may be the best ever. If you are a wood carver and know how the Japaneses are about their steels...that stuff is high carbon beyond all high carbon. ( I haven't bought one yet.) If you have ever had a woodworking tool that gets sharper while you are using it that should be one of them. Carbon content with just about no chrome is close to D2...D2 is a US steel for cutting steel but has a huge amount of chrome so sharpening it is nuts. OK, Notanexpert --looks like you have a tool that was designed to be easy to sharpen and can work all day... ...If you want to talk sharpening...lets start with buying a piece of 2000 grit wet sandpaper at the auto parts store...usually you can get a package with assorted grits for less than 10 bucks. (New woodworking project...a sheath for it..out of wood.) You will also need an old leather belt. We are sharpening at 2000 grit because you don't seem afraid of cutting yourself.

Hi Joe! Love the enthusiasm. I haven't tried sharpening on wet sandpaper. I have a combination of whet stones and diamond plates of various grits. And a leather strop glued to a board with a green compound that someone recommended. Definitely not afraid of cutting myself.

@@NotanExpert-Woodworking Well, the though occurred to me. I was watching a British page about guitar building. The woman was pretty fascinated with her own heritage in the woodworking area and did a video about her sharpening of her Grandmother's chisel. That was when the thought occurred to me. "Hey Joe, when was the last time you talked to someone who sharpens his own razor?" 12:08AM Here in Florida. Well, after few generations of experience you find that you really need to be careful about the subject of sharpening a knife or a razor. So, since your page seems to need the subject and the subscribers...it's an easy and inexpensive project. THE ADVANTAGE OF 2000 GRIT MAY ACTUALLY BE GREATER WITH 1000 GRIT. I'm sure you learned from shaving, too sharp doesn't want to stop bleeding. Look for a nice old block of wood to make a bench knife holder. You'll need one side flat for the strop and the other side flat for the sandpaper.
