Some New Spoons

This is a cherry spoon I made as a Christmas present. It has a special purpose: scooping large quantities of honey from glass jars for making mead. Therefore the spoon must be long, tough and especially comfortable to hold.


Then there are 4 small spoons from willow wood. People often ask me how long it takes to carve one spoon, so I measured the time and it adds up to 2 hours per spoon. Of course this is an absolute minimum because willow wood is quite soft, the spoons are small and I didn't even sand them.
