Here's mine - walnut, finished with a few coats of olive oil. The corners have a different radius: one corner is a 1/4 inch radius, and the other is a 1/2 inch radius, so the spoon can get into the "corner" of pots that have rounded "corners" at the bottom or nearly square "corners".

Ok, here go some of my beginner spoons. All of these were carved out of green apple wood pruned from a neighbors tree. Please excuse my sorry excuse of picture taking......I need a light tent I guess. The first two pictures are of a spoon that is 16" long with a spiral carved handle. The second picture is of various spoons that are 13" long, 15" long and 9 inches long respectively. All of these were done in the last 3 weeks. The spiral handled one I did this past week specially for the challenge. I wanted something different for the challenge so I carved it like a vine had grown wrapped around it.

Howdy all. Carved this spoon out of an alder tree blocking the view from my workshop driveway. It has some pin knots but the spoon was just an experiment - never carved a spoon before. It was inspired from when I saw a raven steal an egg from a fish boat a while back.
