LOL, I wish I could carve that good.  JJ what knife do you recommend?

Tough question, Jan.  It'll really depend on the design.  For real intricate designs you'll need thin blades.   I'd expect that the winner will have used a varied amount of tools, when all is said and done.

I'd expect that folks that like a "Lagoulle" style knife could do a lot with one...

The blade style lends itself to more delicate work.

Just Sayin...

Well not sure its a link...I am pretty sure Jan was commenting on pics but I guess if a link turns up we'll find it! If you do use an exotic or high dollar knife for pumpkin carving be sure to take a pic of that. I guess a description of said knife would be good too. I better start on mind as there is sure to be frost on it tomorrow a.m.!

Got to talking with a friend this weekend and he asked me if I had ever seen any of George Strunks work.  Silly me I thought it was a knifemaker.  My buddy starting telling me some stories about an amazing wood carver, thought I would share
