Hey all, my name's Derek. I've wanted to get into carving and whittling for a while, but never been able to. Well, recently I've gotten a few basic tools and some sharp pocket knives and have been looking around the net for a few places to learn. Boy am I glad I stumbled into here. Looks like I'm gonna be busy for a few days browsing the archives and looking around. Hopefully I'll learn a little bit.

This is a great place for beginners to get answers and for more experienced carvers to share their tips. Welcome!

MA, burning and carving is not the same as playing with matches and knives.
