Thanks for going old school. Something good about using a simple vintage pocket knife like the old timers did. I keep forgetting I'm the old timer now. Lol😊
As you were carving the lower eyelid and the camera zoomed in I could see the knife tip flexing I was gritting my teeth, I too have my dad's pocket knife and wouldn't want anything happen to it. You obviously have done that before. Great job
That was fun watching you do that. I have a Case Seahorse whittler that I spent time sharpening and carry it when we go to the campground. It’s fun to mess with. I also have a Schrade Old Timer wood carver that’s almost impossible to sharpen. Neither of these compare to my OCCT knives. Thanks again.
Could you PLEASE demonstrate how to get my whittling blades flat ground. I'm just not getting it. I have mostly 6inch DMT Diamond plates and Sand paper and loads of cheapish knives to practice on and want no bevel blades like occ tools from Mike Shipley. Im desperate!!!!!!!! ATB. Pete. Ps. I'm not fooling with the 3 Shipley till I have to, just stropping them till i've mastered the technique.
Thanks!! The latest giveaway I did is over now. Shipped off the study stick to a gentleman in Canada actually! All the info on it is listed in the description of the giveaway video.

These are my favorite kind of carvings. Just one knife and nothing more. Thanks!

Very nice video Van! I'm going to mention it (and your channel) in the next episode of Wood Carving Weekly. 👍
I love the idea of using a pocket knife as the only carving tool. Thank you for sharing Van.
Great teaching Van ..Excellent lesson on eye's and the knife selection ..
You make it look so easy! Loved seeing you use your Dads knife.

As always Van, your video tutorials teach me new methods and always motivate me to pick up some wood and practice. Appreciate you!!

Was your Dad also a Carver? Great video, really enjoy your tips & tutorials
He was not a carver. But a wonderful father!
Could you attempt that with a sliding utility knife?
Good thought! I'll make it down as an idea, thanks!
