Bowl carving adze

[Cracker]

Nice, is that a slick?

Looking at probably 2" in straight and a couple of gouges. May even go bigger if pos.

If I was going to buy off the shelf I'd get these

Sculpture Tools

Can't buy at present but if you think it's do-able pm some prices and I'll start building up a fund for them.

Cheers, Si

PS love the axe in your avatar.

 

Thanks. Yes it's a slick. To be honest I'd buy the ones from Toolnut as I can't really compete on price and I'd be lying if I said mine would be any better. Toolnut have approached me a couple of times about selling my tools, but there's not enough hours in the day as it is!

 

I really love the work of these guys Handmade Custom Hand Tools & Knives. Some serious talent there.

Fair enough mate, I still may get back to you for one of those adzes though:001_smile:

Those cariboo guys make some sweet blades, I've bookmarked a few canadian/american makers in the past (my wish list). If I can find them I'll post them up.

Cheers for your time,

Si
