Hi guys... I have been asked what knife and chisels I used so here they are... Straight chip carving knife... bought through Etsy ... from Proops Sheffield... 30mm blade... Robert Sorby 3mm V gouge... Amazon... I shortened the length of the steel... Robert Sorby 2mm straight gouge... Amazon... shortened length again... Henry Taylor 6 piece super sharp gouge set... Axminster tools... Basswood from Yandles in Martock Somerset... The plastic tray is a potting tray from a garden centre... I hope that this helps...

That was a great piece, and a great demonstration. Your carving knives seem to cut through the Basswood like butter! You must do a video on how you sharpen them. Thank you, and best wishes.
Hi Jay... thank you very much .. I'm glad that you liked the video...my knife is very sharp. Its the only way to get clean cuts...

Nice job. I've tried whittling with two gloves and it drives me nuts. I use a Kevlar glove on the left hand and just a leather thumb guard on the right hand. It depends how one learns the craft.
Hi there... I know exactly what you mean...it is so much nicer not to wear gloves especially on the right hand.. but after a nasty cut I decided to stick with both... the rubberized palms help a lot... and I would like to think that anyone taking up the hobby would start off with gloves and find it easier and safer... the thumb guard is a good idea... take care...All the best.....Andy
Hi Scott... Thank you very much... I have just pinned a comment on top of the video comments with the details of the tools that I used... I hope that this helps... Take care...All the best.....Andy
Hmm, my wood never squeaks to let me know how well I'm doing. How'd yours ? That wood cuts like butter ... no or little need to pay attention to the grain eh Andy ? Thanks for sharing🙏 Stay safe. -Mike😷
Hi Mike... Haha... I was thinking.. what squeaks .. then I remembered my dog Ivy playing with her squeaky ball during filming... it does cut like butter... my knife is uber sharp... the grain does play a part but it is very straight and even... you do still have to switch cut direction to prevent digging in... I'm glad that you enjoyed the video... take care...All the best.....Andy
Beautiful carving there Andy. I'm going to have to have a go at this one. What is the knife you're using? I have a Drake knife that I got from the US but it cost me as much again in import & customs fees! Lovely knife but I'd rather see if I can get a good one over here. I don't like the x-cut range, not comfy in the hand. Keep up the great videos! 👍👍

Hi Caseydog3... Sorry... not quite sure what you mean... I have a piece of 4x2 with a 90 degree groove down the centre... the 4x2 is about 6 inches longer than the Basswood The Basswood is placed into the groove and I run both pieces through the band saw cutting along the edge. I hope that this helps... Take care...All the best.....Andy
@@AndysCornishCreations oh ok batoning wood is simply taking a straight edge and knocking it thru the wood but it would follow the grain like splitting wood..anyway I used the whole piece of wood and it came out great I just rounded off the back and put hair back there! Thanks
@@AndysCornishCreations As a BlackSmith Hobbyist I've got tired of the BlackSmith hooks for racks yelling next I'm carving my hooks and might be little heads.
