Axing out some maple branch wood into a serving spoon. Next step is using carving knife to refine the shape and hollow the bowl.

The masculine urge to carve a spoon out of wood is strong.

*moments earlier* Do you like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too....New Wave for my taste. When "Sports" came out in 83', I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a 'cool, crisp' sound and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.... Maple Log: "Is that a raincoat?" Yes, it is. In 1987 Huey released this, Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think I heir undisputed masterpiece is “HiP To Be Square,” a song so catchy that most people probably don’t listen to the lyrics. But they should because it’s not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It’s al~ a personal statement about the band itself. Hey Maple? (Splinters fly as the hatchet falls onto the unsuspecting log)

@acadiant2756 Maple is actually a pretty soft wood and easy to work with. One of the reasons it's so great! I love me some good Maple but Oak will always have that warm nostalgic place in my heart being from the South.

Why do you say that? I find that I can customize the utensil to fit the cookware (all cast iron or high carbon steel). I almost only use my own spoons as cookware and for eating when camping too. (maximum abuse). Yesterday I was able to flip eggs with a crude birch spatula (usually have used a thin metal ones)

@justvibinbro7406 Жыл бұрын

@@bluesideup007 i say that mostly because of how quickly wooden utensils deteriorate or have wood shaved off, i wish it wasn’t the case but plastic/rubber and metal utensils are just more reliable

@bluesideup007 Жыл бұрын

@@justvibinbro7406 I see. I think you are right in that there may be some minor material attrition due to abrasion or high heat. The spatula I was referencing above shows some slight charring and wear at the very edge due to the high heat from cast iron use. but this is easily re-profiled (once in past 2-3 years). The stirring spoons I use in tomato foods like chili, etc have held up with minimal effect. I thought there would be more staining. I use several base coats of food grade flaxseed (linseed) oil and them them cure a while. By itself it would take ages to fully cure, so I top coat them with General Finishes "Salad Bowl" finish. This has proven quite durable even when I accidentally leave them soaking in water with the dishes in the sink. Using a harder, less porous wood like maple would also increase durability. And, there is the fact that wood utensils come from a renewable resource. YMMV. Good luck.

@justvibinbro7406 The only spoons I use, whether for eating or cooking (and I cook every day... including not infrequent high heat stir frying in a carbon steel wok), are ones I carve; quite a number of people cook with spoons I've carved, in fact. No one's had any durability issues. It comes down to wood choice, spoon design, and finishing; care seems to have less of an impact. If you want a durable spoon, try cherry, finished with linseed oil, and make sure it's designed properly- thin in the right places, thicker in the structural areas, and most importantly, make sure that the grain is oriented properly. You should have no problems, then.
