Hock 3/4" violin knife as a carving tool Posted: 08 Jun 2021 11:33 AM PDT Through an ordering mixup, I have just received a Hock 3/4" violin knife. This is product VK075. I had intended to get the 1/4" knife, for use cleaning up tight corners in dovetails and similarly fine detail work. I expect I'll order the 1/4" (again), because I don't have anything close to that size or shape. I'm not sure if I should keep the 3/4". What sorts of tasks is this blade well-suited for? I'm a (mostly) hand tool woodworker, starting to explore carving and greenwoodworking. I've already got a Mora 106, a hook knife, and some gouges. I can afford both blades, but I don't like accumulating tools that don't end up getting used. submitted by /u/plantarum [link] [comments]

Starting out, any suggestions/tips? Posted: 07 Jun 2021 03:41 PM PDT I'm looking to get into wood carving. My first project was a spoon. A project which proved to be more difficult than anticipated. For my next project I would like to make a fruit bowl but am having trouble finding the wood pieces large enough to carve. Does anyone have any suggestions of where I can source larger pieces of wood (18" blocks or logs)? Also do you have any tips on getting started such as what kind of wood is best or what tools will make the job easier, I've heard soft woods are better such as basswood. As for tools I'm thinking a chainsaw will work for carving of larger pieces then going in by hand. Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. submitted by /u/Oranjjuse [link] [comments]
