Nice! ::tu::
My grandfather used a cane he had whittled himself. I don't know what it was made of, but I remember it looked something like this one, which is made of juniper. Not made by me. It is sold from a website by the maker…

Stan,
I'm afraid I don't speak French, but I do have a French Army knife… :lol: (no good for whittling though…)

Looks like the new forum is up and running good. Great looking carvings here already. Johnnie if that pecan was dried it had to be a hard piece of wood, good job there man. Keep it up.

It does not cost any more to carry a sharp knife than it does to carry a dull knife
