    Wow. This is awesome. I have been wanting a small straight handle draw knife to peel park from vine wrapped branches for canes and walking sticks. This really gives me a great idea.

    Simple is an understatement. That's a work of art in itself. Bought a couple antique ones for leathercraft. Those blades were curved and worn down. But they had a 90° bend and the handles were vertical and a board goes across the top.

      I'm still in the same broom closet :) I tried making a shop tour, but it's too tight to get any decent shots, I'd need some really wide lenses to get some decent footage. As for changes, I changed the surface of my workbench to a gray one, since it looks better on video. Also added a ton of lights. The lathe is a new addition, other than that it's pretty much the same.

      Good one, that was firewood. The shavings ended up in my compost pile, to be used in the garden.

      hehe. I am a supporter of solar / wind power so sorry but I do not consider 10% final product productivity as a great success. Good thing you are using the rest for compost but a tree need a lot of time to grow. People who live in areas where forests are long time gone will understand what I say here. Anyway your work is very nice but I can't stop thinking at the waste of 90%. But this is just me...

      I really don't understand your way of thinking. Basically the wood I've used is a branch from the cleaning of plum trees in an orchard. The tree did not die for me to get this wood, on the contrary that cleaning probably improved it's health and prolonged it's life. It was destined to be firewood. It was in a pile of firewood. So that 90% you call waste would've been burned anyway.
      Also the average house in a village in my country burns around one truckload of wood every winter. So 90% of this small piece of wood I've used here means nothing at all.
      Don't get me wrong, I love trees and I probably planted more in my life than most self proclaimed saviors of the planet. I've even thought of buying cheap land in my native village, where people have cut the forest to plant wheat but the new generation left for the city and abandoned it, and plant trees back. I might do that in my old age if I retire there.
      Oh, and don't get me started on the solar panel thing, go visit a plant that makes solar panels and see how green that energy is.
      PS: if you're trolling me, you did a great job!

      LOL. I do not troll. I did not knew all the details about the origin of this piece of wood. I just don't appreciate how from a chunk of wood like that you made just two small handles. No need to be upset when people express their opinions. This is why you have a comment section on your YT channel. I am not an extremist ecologist. I just stated that for some people, like me, wasting so much wood for so little product is not good. I had to leave my small town to move in a big concrete town and I hate it so much. Every time I see woodworking is like I feel the call of the land...and if I see cut trees I am not happy. I do not talk here about saving planet or whatever. Just about productivity over a natural asset that is less and less available in many parts of the world. No need to explain so much. You burn many trucks of wood to get warm. Maybe in a life time you cut down a small forest. Some people cut old trees and other people (most of people actually) cut everything to the ground. Everybody have their own needs and opinions. I do not judge you. I only stated my opinion appreciating your skills but not appreciating what you spent to make those handles. Why such a big deal?

      I wasn't making a big deal out of it, it's hard to express feelings in writing since you don't see the tone in which I've written those things. Especially since english is not my native language. So it's okay for you to have an opinion and for me not to agree to it.
      As for my long answer it was just to put more perspective to this situation. Woodturning in particular creates a lot of waste of wood since you start from the raw log. And I've seen a lot of comments like yours on this channel or on other woodturning channels.
