KNIFE MODIFICATION ~ Redux

From time to time there comes an inner creative urge to the Wood Bee Carver to tinker again with making Other Knives for personal use utilizing rescued pocket knife blades. The process includes reshaping the blades into experimental shapes to enhance the Whittle-Carving experience as well as shaping the handles. Here is the latest results […]

3 CLOWNS

The three clowns of this carving project are a repeat performance of previously carved clowns of similar appearance. Each is carved from a six inch tall by an inch and half square block of basswood and finished with artist oil paint thinned with boiled linseed oil. Two of the clowns are based upon a similar […]

GRAY BEARD PIRATE

The visual image of this carved pirate has been carved several times as a red beard or black beard pirate. It only stands to reason in the imaginary world of pirate myth that there surely were old pirates who had weathered the seas of ancient history. Such is the reason for carving another […]

The Pocket Cavers are in production now. The GEC employees are complaining about finger cuts and the final sharping has not be completed yet.

Comment by J.J. Smith III on January 23, 2020 at 6:16: Which is why I say that the Seahorse is about the ideal whittler, Tom.

Comment by Tom Peterson on January 22, 2020 at 19:23: Would be nice if one of the small blades was a flat ground version of their punch blade or something similar to get in the tight spots or even a small spey blade or rounded belly blade instead of two identical blades. They look pretty though...

Comment by J.J. Smith III on January 22, 2020 at 13:55: aesthetically, I'm not fond of 3 wharnies on one knife, but I'm liking the natural micarta. The muslin looks like a nice Sunday carry.

Comment by Jan Carter on January 21, 2020 at 19:24: Glad to see these in a micarta. it may help keep the cost down

Comment by Jan Carter on September 15, 2019 at 19:30: Rome,

That is a GREAT story. I love that you gave her a knife for Christmas every year. In my heart of hearts I hope you have one of the pearls and one of the knives you gifted to her. What an awesome display that would make with one of her guns or slings!

Comment by J.J. Smith III on September 15, 2019 at 11:21: Thanks for sharing, Rome.

Comment by Rome D. Rushing on September 14, 2019 at 20:57: When I was growing up my mother used to tell us about when she was a little girl.

Every christmas she would ask for a pearl handled pocket knife and she said it seemed like she got one almost every christmas. Then just a few weeks after christmas here knife would disappear and her grandmother would tell her someone stole it. The problem was my mother was a tom-boy and her father would get her that knife and her grandmother hated a little girl having a knife. Momma said that after her grandmother passed away they found a half dozen knives in her dresser.

My mother used to carve things all the time and while she was alive I gave her a new pocket knife for christmas every year. I can remember she used to carve wooden pistols for her grandboys to play with. And she could make a pretty good sling shot too.
