A great short video showing the key points. Thanks! My Michigan Sloyd spoon mule is in parts in my garage right now waiting for it's order in my projects to be built. My only question is where do you get that boss T-Shirt?

I'm trying to carve a spatula, what is that blade at 0:11 and can I get it on Amazon?

[@tyleranderson9190]

That’s a drawknife. Find an old one on eBay or a flea market. The new ones you will find on Amazon are not good. A 7 to 9 inch is good, I like Witherby or Barton, but there are many good brands.

@@tyleranderson9190 is pexto a good Brand for draw knife?

[@tyleranderson9190]

@@manuelmartinez7178 Yes, Pexto are great. Try to find one with good tight handles and that hasn’t had the back of the blade hammered on.

[@manuelmartinez7178]

@@tyleranderson9190 thank you for the info .
I found a 10-inch one but I think the price is very high, it is for sale for $ 100 😳.

[@tyleranderson9190]

@@manuelmartinez7178 I don’t like to pay much over 50, but it depends on if it’s nice and how much work you want to put into one. I just got one for 25 but I have to make new handles.

You could have made 3 spatulas probably out of that much wood instead of shavibg it for hours
