It's probably a good set for beginners. To see if you really like to have this hobby. But if you are serious about carving/whittling, I recomand to upgrade on quality. Helvie, OCCT, Drake.

If you have a decent set of sharpening stones and about an hour and a half you can turn that BeaverCraft into an excellent knife. I ground the bevel off and made it a flat grind and reshaped the tip a bit. The slightly thinner blade and the flat grind made a world of difference. The blade is still thick enough to be sturdy but thin enough to slice through the wood effortlessly. Very pleased with the results.

I received some birthday money from an uncle last week and have just this morning purchased a BeaverCraft whittling and spoon carving set, which should arrive in the next few days. He said to spend the money unwisely or at least frivolously... I have been doing some basic doorstep whittling with an old but nice clasp knife, making clothes pegs and the like, but want to take the hobby up a notch ‘scuse the pun! I wanted to get a comprehensive, mid-range beginners set to start me off and give me an opportunity to learn what suits my style of work, which is why I opted for the BC 8 knife set. The little chip carving demo should help with some of the Celtic knot carving I have been practicing with my unwieldy clasp knife so I am glad there is the chip carver in the set. I am just off to the shop to stock up with bandages😂

this is the first kit i bought when i started this past summer. After several months of carving, the tip broke off of the 1 1/4" knife. I had a professional sharpen and re-establish the tip. He said the steel is not as well tempered as it could be. i wish there was a place in the states to have them serviced or replaced. I have carved many things with these blades. I use this knife for other projects now as i have another blade that i really like. (ron wells OCCT).

The price is very tempting. I'm concerned about the tang length and lack of a ferrule. Do the blades seem to be securely mounted?

Don’t you use the back of the leather strip and not the face when stropping?
