Default Soup ladle for Mamma

Been workin on this for 31/2 days, finally finished today. It's cherry wood and it measures 13 1/2 inches long. Hope ya'll like it. It's the biggest spoon I've tried thus far, guess I'll do some small ones now.

Thanks Shawn and Robert. Shawn, I really do like the cherry, and besides, it's all the food safe wood I have on hand. I have a couple more boards on the way, three feet by 7 inches (I think). It's so nice to work with, tough as H... to sand tho.

Really neat Cliff,I like the shape of a duck and the head in the handle. You've turned into a real spoon maker and rather nicely I must say!! Nice work and the finishes set them off just right!

Nice ladle, Cliff. That looks like something I'd have to think twice about before plunging into hot soup! I like the simplicity of the design, as well as the fact there aren't any places food could get trapped. I cook a lot (because I like to) and I'm always concerned about food not being able to be cleaned out of a utensil...
