In this class, you will learn the basic techniques of using a sloyd knife, crook, or “Spoon Knife” and axe work to shape green or wet wood. And although a spoon is just a bowl with a handle (don't be intimidated!), we will go over some helpful design hints and styles to make a more functional and beautiful spoon.
