Talking Custom turned Flexcut handle
My specially bent Flexcut #9 9/16" gouge for spoon carving, I made a handle and did a tutorial on it, here it is finished. The handle is Masur Birch with a beeswax finish.

Nice work Carl. I was looking at your "how to" and must give it a try. I have two sets of those blades I've never used.
