This year I have gained a lot more interest and bought a couple chip knives. Had to figure out the hard way to sharpen it first. lol I am also looking for others who might be in this area. Looking forward to learnig from you all. Greg

well so far I have a piece of firewood witht a hole in it and a picture frame with several "is this knife sharp?" marks. lol it will be a while before I manage to get anything besides sawdust and kindling to photograph. I mean that litter-ally. (pun intended) I am interested in chip carving and Celtic, nordic, Greek, E. Indian and Mayan designs. Greg

Greg, Welcome!! I bought my husband a knife and gouge five years ago for Christmas, he hasn't ever touched them.....I'm the one who got addicted! He says it's the best gift I ever gave 'myself'.....I have to agree!! Deborah
