Wooden spoon in under 10 minutes

I took this video at the start of May, some fine weather then and had a couple of days out in the woodland. Just sometimes I find I need another spoon, or even forgot it altogether. By the time it takes the crusader cooker to boil 500ml, I reckoned you could make a basic spoon, so here goes.

As I state in the video, its not intended as a competition and when you are out and about I always find myself slowing down anyway. Isn't that the point of getting away from the humdrum of modern life?

Anyway, it was fun to do, hope its the same for you.

Thanks again to all my subscribers and followers.

Just found this video. If no crook knife is there a good alternative to carve out the bowl? thank you

[survivingoutdoors]

@truckpipe It can be burnt out with small embers from a fire, or ground slowly on a rough stone. Even used peices of flint in the past, gives a rough spoon but useable.

very cool video enjoyed it very much

the information was also good

i was thinking of buying my first hook or spoon knife just not sure if i really need one or not it does seem to make carving out a lot easier

[survivingoutdoors]

@winnipegdiver Thanks for that. The crook knife I use is made by Frosts, it certainly makes gouging the bowl out a lot easier. I guess you could get by without it using flint or even hot embers etc, but then maybe thats for another day!

Impressive knife control. Nice background music that doesn't over-power the best music of all (mother nature). The PIP was a bonus that really shows what you're doing. Thanks for the lesson! Subbed

really nice and fast spoon.

i just started making those but i don't have a crook knife. i mostly use my f1 or my mora 860 clipper. i just do it to see if i can. but carving out the bowl is a real pain...

good video
