- Honest reviewThe catch, not just the hype
Why this gift works
The BeaverCraft S15 Whittling Kit includes three wood carving knives - a C6 chip carving knife, a C15 detail knife and a C16 roughing knife - with ash handles and 1066 high-carbon steel blades. It comes with a leather strop and polishing compound to keep the edges sharp, a canvas tool roll and beginner tutorials. Wood blocks are not included, per BeaverCraft.
Whittling suits a porch chair and an afternoon: quiet, slow and satisfying. For a grandpa who whittled as a boy, this is the kit to pick it back up - and to show the grandkids how it is done.
Who is this gift for?
Great for
- A grandpa who whittled as a boy
- A quiet retirement hobby
- Carving small gifts for the grandkids
Think twice if
- His hands are unsteady
- Young grandkids would be around it unsupervised
The catch
No wood is included, so basswood blocks are extra; the knives are very sharp and no cut-resistant gloves come in the box; and the high-carbon blades must be kept dry and oiled.
Skip if his hands are unsteady, or you do not want sharp knives around young grandkids.
