Green woodworking or green slöjd! Watch this video to see how I carve a greenwood maple serving spoon, with a variety of tools I use for making my crafts. This setup works really great for me because I don't use few tools that will cause my hands and joints to hurt and wear out! It's a tough job to carve spoons, but you now.. I love it :)
I do this full time so I have do it as effective as possible.
Spooncarving success = Proper tools, techniques and razor sharpness!
Carving a maple serving spoon with:
Julia Kalthoff axe
Hans Karlsson 35mm adze
Svante Djärv drawknife + shavehorse
Nic Westermann 65mm twca cam
Morakniv 220 splitting knife + sloydknife 106 + 163 open spoonknive, which I've made single beveled.
ASMR to the people!

no talking, no bgm. just carving sound. it's so good. plz upload more soft carving sound video
Thank you very much buddy! :)
I’ll make a new carving video next week!
@@formgjortbyJonasAls hey Jonas! I hope you are having a good day today! Btw I was curious, what part of Denmark are you from?? Near Copenhagen? Keep up the good work! A fellow spoon Carver, Pacific coast piper.
I Turn a Rusty Nail into a little Hunting Knife!!!!
Yes, its nice
@@pacificcoastpiper3949 2 years later.. Sorry! hehe. Yeah, 40 minutes in car from Copenhagen, Northern Zealand.
Repeat of other comments, I know … Your TOOLS are SOO SHARP … I almost cry when I see your steel form wood, your experienced eye working is a joy to behold!!!
These kind of videos are the best. No unnecessary talking, just carving. Nice
Very nice work. You carve with a speed and ferocity I've never seen before. Comes from years of experience no doubt.
Andrew, sorry for the super delayed response! Thank you, yeah its at least 1000 spoons and thousands of axe and knife shavings later ;)
Your tools are so sharp, it makes it look like your carving a spoon from Parmesan cheese
Shhhh, it is Parmasan 😂💪🏻😉
@@formgjortbyJonasAls A spoon that you can eat with Spaghetti! I love it! ;)
Learned a lot. More axe, sharper tools. Wow thank you!!
That's good to hear Tom!
I just recently started carving. Just completed my pocket spoon today. Also made a mug/kuksa looking hybrid and a walking stick this week. All from a white ash I felled a few months back. It's better therapy than what the VA gives me, that's for damn sure
Hows it going now, 2 years later? You certainly have the right idea!
@susanp.collins7834 it's still working out great for me! I've gotten better at carving, and have produced around 100 ornate spoons. It's calming, and helps ease the stress of life despite having sore wrists sometimes.
So therapeutic.... Beautiful work...
Incredible. I could watch that all day. It’s mesmerising. Beautiful spoon too. Thank you.
Best axe work ever!
Thanks a lot Harris! It’s take a few chops to understand such a great tool as the axe.
Thank you for sharing your process, tools and different techniques 👌
You’re welcome Maurice! 🙂
I’m glad you like it. It’s my most successful video so far. I’ll keep the spooncarving videos coming 🤘🏻
Amazingly accurate axe strokes
Took me 10.000 of them at least to get it right! ;)
I know jeez that is serious skill as of itself
You have your life down to a fine Art,as far as i can See! Well Done.
Thank you buddy ;)
@@formgjortbyJonasAls You deserved that Compliment & you are very welcome buddy :)
Love your work. I like no talking, just getting busy carving. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Jane!
I think that’s the style from now on ;)
Great control!
Very satisfying watching a sharp knife cut wood :)
Thanks for sharing!
This was a great video fun to watch and instructional you gave me some motivation to attempt to make some spoons this weekend hopefully no firewood 😂 also at around 3:45 the auto generated captions pick up the wood hitting the floor as applause even the wood is grateful
Awesome!
Fantastic control you have with the axe and knives. Impressive.
Thank you very much for sharing, much appreciated.
Happy New Year !! All the best.
Amazing!!!
Thank you for the video, fine work. I really like the bench you used, do you have any plans or videos about making one?
where do you get your greenwood? the forrest ? i live in sydfyn, and lots of forrest, but i cant just start chopping down trees, also i know nothing about what kind of trees im looking at :D
Great chopping block! Love the spoon design too. Thanks for sharing!
DO you have to oil the spoon? What oil do you use?
Another cool video. Keep up the good work
Thanks buddy! It means a lot!
Beautiful work! Did you build your own shavehorse? If so, do you have the plans> If so, are they available?
Aloha, I'm a budget woodworker can you recommend a cost friendly carving kit? Love this spoon!
Try beaver craft
@@bubbamike9648 thanks
Moraknives are the the best alternative, because its good quality compared to the price. I would never ever ever recommend Beaver Craft. Its cheap, low quality tools. You get what you pay for. Pay a bit more for Moraknives and you'll get better tools.
Later, you should buy Hans Karlsson tools :)
@@formgjortbyJonasAls thank you!
Não adianta só ter as ferramentas certas e boas, tem que ter habilidade. Admiro essas pessoas que criam suas próprias obras de arte através de sua aptidão artística.
How long does the process take would you say?
Beautiful design perfectly executed
What a beautiful spoon you have made ,incredible skill my friend ,I must try to make a shave horse looks very useful to have !
Hello Nidge!
Thank you very much, it means a lot. Yeah, you should. It’s an incredibly helpful tool, along with a drawknife.
It's like therapy ❤️
Ensian Blåfugl So is it to make 💪🏻😉
So if I can't get the same brand of blades over where I am what do you recommend ? I already heard you worn against beavercraft.
Nice work！I tried with dry hard maple and it was so difficult to deal with😓too hard
Wonderful and peaceful. Could you share some details on your bench where you are doing the shaving? Very nice.
Thanks a lot Kurt!
It’s a Svante Djärv shave horse. I love this design, works super great for me and my setup :)
Beautiful
Jonas that is some of the best tool control I've ever seen. I'm an old school joiner & carpenter & a good axe has always been by my side, so I truly enjoyed watching you make the spoon. I would love to see a few photos of your spoon carving horse as I want to make one. My carving horse isn't suitable for spoons. Thanks for sharing. Hugo.
Hey Hugo!
wow, that means a lot to me. Thank you! It's so important to have full control of your tools, especially when it comes to the axe which is a wonderful tool, but also really dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.
The shavehorse is a Svante Djärv, from Sweden. I think they're some of the best. For me at least.
I'll take some pictures and post it on my Instagram soon. Can't post anything here yet.. But I'm working on it. Need 500 more subscribers and 2000 more viewhours. I might get there before newyears eve i Hope :)
Cheers from Denmark!
Your skill with that ax and adze is amazing great work
Thank you Phil! I really appreciate it 💪🏻🙂
Buen día!!excelente video !!!que madera es?
Beautiful work! Do you sharpen your knives/gouges during the work on one spoon? All of them look crazy sharp!
what do you use as a finish when you are done? linseed oil?
Yeah man, coldpressed linseed oil and beeswax 💪🏻
Thank you for sharing! What kind of wood was that?
Look at those tools!!
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وباركاته ..بعدما شاهدت فيديوهاتك فعلا إنك تقوم بعمل رائع فيما يخص النحت على الخشب فعلا عمل لاباس به ..أنا كذلك نحات على الخشب بالرغم من إمكانياتي المتواضعة فيما يخص الادوات..اتمنى لك المزيد من التألق والمثابرة .Saïd from algeries
good job !!!
Thanks a lot Matthieu!
Awesome and love the shave house too
It's a Svante Djärv. My favorite shavehorse :)
He makes it look so easy..
Yeah, What a terrible person 😉
Superrr !
The Best !
Brother got some SERIOUS SKILLS.
Thank you buddy! I’ll make a new carving video tomorrow. How to carve a scoop or mini kuksa :)
love the spoon, but I subscribed for the shave horse. Did you design that?
Hi Jonas, I like your technique and greatly enjoy your videos. Tell me please, who makes your draw knife and where can I purchase one? Thanks!
Hi Scott. The drawknife is from the swedish toolmaker Svante Djärv :-)
Beautiful spoon, thank you for sharing! I am very new to spoon carving and I am wondering what to put on the spoon when I am done? I am wondering what you use? Thank you for your help
Hello Christine 💪🏻🙂
Thank you very much. I use cold pressed linseed oil and beeswax.
Spectacular spoon! 🥄👏😀
what wood was used?
Where would you suggest I look to buy tools like this? This is completely new to me but I am interested in learning and getting some tools of the same sort to have some fun with it. Thanks for any and all input!
Hey Thomas!
It depends on where you live. But I'll strongly recommend you to buy Morakniv 120 carving knife and a Morakniv 164 hook knife, a silky folding saw and Gränsfors wildlife hatchet. Then youre ready to go :)
All the best
- Jonas
@@formgjortbyJonasAls thank you so much !!
Bonjour et merci de ce tte vidéo instructive. C’est la première fois que je vois sculpter une cuillère de cette façon. Il faut être fameusement sûr de soi pour attaquer le bois à la hachette, avec cette grande lame. Le bois que vous avez utilisé est-il du bouleau frais ? Le billot que vous employez est intéressant. Pouvez-vous me donner les dimensions de ce billot à marches ? Merci pour vos réponses et pour le partage. Michèle
Non - c'est l'erable.
where I can buy this tools? do u have a link of some page?
I think the axe is Hans Karlsson: www.klensmide.se/tools-for-woodworking
The twca cam may be Nic Westermann:
nicwestermann.co.uk/
Not sure about the knife... Maybe Morakniv?: morakniv.se/en/usagearea/woodcarving/
Good luck! 😊
Great video man. Do you keep a Scandinavian grind on your blade you’re using at 22:30 when you’re working on the handle end? (Sloyd knife?)
Yeah man. For carving, scandi grind is the only way to go. Don't ever make a microbevel on your knives.
Thanks!
Eventually you can make a hollow grind, with a round stone, for example with a tormek. I got a video with that 👍🏻
I actually watched you sharpen your lathe gouges with that Tormek. Good content and tutorial. I’ll check out the hollow grind video. Really appreciate it man.
Do you sell these would love to have 2 of them
Very nice! I was working on one almost like it. I just took it out of the ziplock bag to finish up today. I subscribed to your channel this morning.
Very nice. Interesting that you used a stop cut on one side of the neck but not the other.?
Yeah, it's easier for me as I'm right handed.
Great technique well photographed. Thanks
Great job on the video. Very talented woodworking. Love your shave horse. Any way to see more details on it? Very unique. Keep up the great work.
Awesome video! I was wondering what your work bench/clamp is called. Thanks! :)
Hey Connie :)
It's called a shavehorse. Dated back to before year 0.
@@formgjortbyJonasAls Thank you! :)
Awesome job 👍👍👍✌️
was going to ask why the stop cut on one side only ... learned something very useful there what with the 90ºangle to facilitate easier stock removal on the non-stop-cut side. Hadn't seen that done before. Thx again for that bit of trickery ;)
Myron Unrau Actually, it was a total coincidence.. to show the difference but it worked out really fine as if it was on purpose. You’re welcome friend !!
great video! can i ask, how green is this wood? it seems pretty dry and so I am curious. thanks!
when he sawed through it, I thought the same thing, doesn't look too green!
but then when he put it on the shave horse, it peels away like green wood does
What is the mechanism that is holding the spoon can u show me a diagram of that thing
i like to see this one..thanks
Muy buen video.Qué madera has usado para esta cuchara?
Люксично !
Thanks Vladimir!
Any change on giving more info on the work station you're sitting on? I just started spoon carving just holding the piece of wood but i love the setup you got to keep it clamped down ...

Jealous on how skilled you are in using your axe.
Can you give some more information on which type and brand of carving knives you use?
It's just about hours upon hours of practice buddy. It scares me too when I watch it on video :D
Добрый день. Что за дерево?
Everything done without using electronic tools is very nice ,greetings from Turkey
!
Отличная работа брат 👍
4:34
NICE !!!
You have a great talent not just for woodworking but also for video editing. Thank you so much for putting these together. I know it isn't always easy but you instill a sense of peace within those who view your content. Side note: who made that hook/spoon knife?
Awesome! 🌳🥄
Who's the toolmaker of this beautiful ax ?
Guillaum Gibault Julia kalthoff
That’s Julia Kalthof. She makes amazing axes 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Thank you!
At 7:40 what tool were you using
It's a Svante Djärv medium sized drawknife. Lovely tool.
Witch Wood do you use for the spoon? And it's a good Video.
Thank you Benni 🙂 It’s maple which I use a lot because it’s dense, hard and superb for wooden treen.
@@formgjortbyJonasAls ok thank you.
Wood very strong! Oak?
Maple.
Hi im about to start carving do you mind telling me where do you buy your wood.
Thanks nice work
If it is for carving, it’s out in the woods. Freshly carved unseasoned wood.
Thanks you have inspired me quite a bit you are really good at what you do
Ich bin sehr beeindruckt.!!! Welches Holz nimmst du für die Löffel?
Super work
I want to start wood carving, what kind of tools should I get ?
Super hyggelige og lærerige videoer du laver 😊 Håber at du laver en video omkring den runde ske 🙏🏻
Hey!
Tusind tak! Jeg skal nok lave en video med runde skeer 🙏🏻😊🤘🏻
Wow very talented man (and that wood seems realy hard
A wonderful spoon. I also do carpentry just like you!

God I love wood craft so much.
That's so good to hear! Thanks! ;)
Amazing work I will soon start carving because/ thanks to people like you but well I'm a little sad because I still don't know where I will do it x) I'm living in an apartment I'm afraid my neighbors will not like it 😅
You may have already a answered this. Are carving with the wood still green? I have been making some spoons out of pine because it is soft , easy to carving, and everywhere here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I would like to try maple if it is doable for a beginner like me.
Chad, check out Andy Spoons. He also hangs out in the Blue Ridge Mountains I believe and is probably familiar with the woods of the area. Do not carve your spoons from oak - they have a weird molecular and chemical structure which reacts badly with certain chemical elements in food such as tannins. Then your beautiful spoon turns black...
Thx
Where can I get plans for your shaving horse?
Hello Pat
It’s a Swedish ‘Svante Djärv’ shavehorse. He makes them himself and I love using them.
I have no knowledge about any plans :)
Great work! Is that green wood or kiln dried?
As green as it can be 😉
Woodcraft by Jonas Als how do you go about drying it afterwards?
She is a beautiful thing.
What type of wood are you using and is it green or dry?
What’s the long blade tool you used by holding one hand on each side
It's the drawknife. One of the drawknives used is a Mora brand.
Are there any benefits in using such a long knife when carving? They are usually much shorter :O
