Carving green wood into spoons, bowls, kuksa and other items has to be one of life's simplest and most soul nourishing pleasures. It is made all the more enjoyable if you can invested in a set of good quality knives, like these from Ray Iles, that are comfortable to use for long periods.

Hand forged O1 carbon steel, carefully heat treated to give a smooth, crisp edge that is both long lasting and easy to maintain.

At first glance the beech handles look fairly ordinary, but they fill the hand perfectly and give superb control.

The deep spoon carving tool is designed for getting inside tight corners, traditionally used for spooncarving, bowls, Kuksa, etc. but is suitable for carving any relatively tight radius hollow. The straight whittling knife works well on convex surfaces and is easy to hone The curved whittling knife is versatile enough to work on shallow concave surfaces.

Comes with a free 6 flat pocket heavyweight durable cotton canvas tool roll in black with matching nylon webbing edge binding tape. A naturally breathable material, this has double stitched stress points with a double thickness section for added protection/strength and fold-over flap.
