Hi Dane Thanks for your great Videos, i was looking for an kolrosing knife all around the internet and you showed me that i dont need it :) thats the magic of spoon carving no need for fancy equipment just two knifes and an axe love it!
@@joebananski654 Glad you like the videos. People get too fixated on the tools. I never felt the need to upgrade to a specialized kolrosing knife and pretty much all I saw is not something that wood be good for my kolrosing 🙂
beautiful spoon, thanks for sharing your techniques. Accessible knife, coffee grounds and a marble, love it. I’m going to give it a try on a wood box I’m making Cheers!
Glad you liked it. Go for it. Start with straight lines designs, they are easier to start with. You can also practice on some scrap pieces of wood to get a hang of it. Be free to check out my other kolrosing videos. Have fun 👍🙂
Question/request... Are there any tricks/tips to doing the rounded section of a letter like D? for example I try to do a small D and the year to 'sign' my spoons but some times the round of the D seems 'fuzzy' from the changing grain? Loving your videos! my wife asks why it only takes you a few minutes to do a spoon when it takes me an hour, or so!! Regards, Dane
For rounded parts I usually do more of stabbing than dragging the knife, like opening a tin can. See some of my other kolrosing videos. Speed comes with repetition. I do many of these each week 🙂 Glad you like the videos.
Probably. Anything hard and smooth works. Burnishing is optional. If you want a bit smoother finish. I just lightly burnish for a few seconds. You can do without it, I sometimes don't do it 🙂
I do. Please email me at danesspoons@gmail.com if interested. Also be free to have a look at my Instagram page at instagram.com/dane.licina/ for all my work 🙂 Thank you

Very nicely Done. Love the shape of the spoon. And a great idea with the use of the marble for burnishing. Keep up the great work. Tom B. in ND

@@danesspoons thanks... I have used #8 or #9 carving gouges, but thought that was cheating
@@danej7335 I use knife only for all kolrosing I just adapt the tehnique for different types of lines
'You hope we stay until the end.'? Try to get rid of us! We'll probably still be here when you go to bed tonight!
Thanks 😂 Glad you liked it 🙂
Dane, do you think a nicely polished semi-precious stone would work as well as a marble and might it be easier to hold in your hand?
Probably. Anything hard and smooth works. Burnishing is optional. If you want a bit smoother finish. I just lightly burnish for a few seconds. You can do without it, I sometimes don't do it 🙂
Do you sell these?
I do. Please email me at danesspoons@gmail.com if interested. Also be free to have a look at my Instagram page at instagram.com/dane.licina/ for all my work 🙂 Thank you
