Here is a site I came across that will help you make your own carving tools. I am new here and do not know if this has been bosted before. Sorry if it has.

Here's a quicker way to make a drawknife:

Sharp--holds an edge--does the job--it's cut red oak, maple, poplar, cherry, basswood, pine--knots and all,--you name it! Not bad for an old stainless steel knife. Before I epoxied a handle on the pointed end, and sharpened it, it was a knife that sat in the drawer dulling the other knives!
