Spoon Carving Blank, Large (European Linden)

Large Spoon Carving Blank, European Linden

Large spoon carving blank for a kitchen serving spoon or similar sized spoon, these are about 260 x 65 x 40 mm in size and ready to carve. The advantage of these blanks is taking out all or most of the axe work, making these popular with spoon carvers without easy access to a chopping block. These can be completed end to end using only a set of spoon carving knives (hook knife and sloyd blade).

European Linden is a soft and easy to carve wood, light and uniform in appearance. In the UK they are often called "lime trees". The leaves are heart shaped, and as most European trees they drop their leaves every autumn.
