I lost count of how many times I thought "Stop! You're going to split it if you... oh, ok, I see, yes, that's right, you know what you are doing and I don't."

I bet if they put the word "ASMR" in the title, this video would've gotten at least 3 times the views. It definetly deserved more views, that's some great work.

Silence from someone who knows what they are doing is a great teacher.

*Wife walks in* Wife: Why are you watching a guy carve a wooden spoon? Me: *squints eyes* I don't know.

I have never in my life seen such consistent and accurate work with an axe.

I am surprised at how incredibly soothing it is to watch him with nothing more than the sound of his breathing and the sound of the knife and hatchet. It's like therapy.

Watched this video a week ago, now all I do in my free time is carve spoons. Never knew how addicting carving and whittling could be.

Rule number one about spoon club. U do not talk about spoon club

Never seen such accuracy with an axe and a knife. ATB .

I saw a lump of firewood, he saw a spoon.

There's something fascinating and relaxing about watching an artist who knows exactly what he's doing. He's in full control of the situation the entire time.

I think this might be the first video i've seen on youtube that doesn't start out with "hey guys..." and 5 minutes of babbling. More channels need to adopt this format! No talk, just work! I drank a beer and watched the man work in peace. Thanks for the upload!

Get a piece of wood. Remove all the notaspoon.

Me at 4 min: “Good enough! Time to eat!”

I never thought I’d want to carve a spoon until now. That’s beautiful

Such a pleasure to watch. No talking, adds, music. Keep up the good work. Made me realize my knife needs sharpening.

thank you. i just love the silent carving. just the sound of the metal into the wood. thanks again

I never understood the attraction to carving a spoon, until I carved my first two spoons. The first one was alright, but the second one is an absolute staple in my kitchen. I carved it out of white oak, and its the most durable utensil in our drawer.

No ads, no annoying music, just a skilled artisan and his wooden spoon

Pure craftsmanship. A pleasure to watch.

Hey honey we ran out of clean spoon can you turn on the dish washer “Give me 30 mins I get you a spoon”

When they forgot to bring spoon for picnic. Hold my beer:

This man made a spoon in 28 minutes. I attempt this and an hour later I have a pile of shavings and a crooked stick. Always nice to see a true artisan at work.

I love when the algorithm blesses me these gems ,these absolute treasures.

This obviously "ain't" your first rodeo bro! Nice! I enjoy watching an artist work no matter what the medium

Did I just spend almost 30 minutes watching a man carve a spoon from wood? Yes. Do I regret it? No.

Title: Silent Carving Video: Chop chop chop chop chop

Impressive especially when you know the tools used are incredibly sharp and must be maintained that way to make it work. Control of the blade edges and using the grain structure to achieve the end result is an art form that can’t be taught from a book. Obviously feeling the spoon emerge and envision of the piece is apparent.

The silence is golden. I know you don't wake up wanting to be a perfectionist, but you manipulate it well. New sub, first watch. Thanks.

Love this silent carving, really insightful and fantastic to see barn’s process!

Best spoon carving video yet. Loved it. Great job 👍

Just carving, no talking! You are the man! Thanks Master !

wow, that was quick ! takes me at least a day, lovin those curls, great vid.

Absolutely hypnotizing from beginning to end! I am inspired. Thank you

There are artists of all kinds and this is one of them. Nice work!

Absolutely amazing, that’s craftsmanship. Love how you worked that knife like it was a wood plane. Looking forward to more of your videos.

Never imagined you'd get that much detail using a hatchet! Really amazing control!

Thanks! This was fun to watch. Excellent tool technique and wonderful lines and curves in this work of art.

Great work - a real pleasure to watch a craftsman at work. Thankyou!

Beautiful art. Love that spoon. Amazing. Wonderful talent you have.

Thank you sir, For such an engaging demonstration. I was enthralled to watch, and the sounds of you working was wonderful too

Wow, thanks for sharing your talent! You've inspired me to try this. So many times I couldn't believe what you did in a single stroke of a blade.

The joy of watching such skilled work, wish I could carve spoons this beautifully!!!

I very much like these designs. Saddle top spoons look especially cool. Great job. Cheers

Very much appreciated watching you carving a spoon, mister. And got aware I really need to sharpen my knife.... ;-) thanks for the inspiration

Wow! This is the second time I’ve watched in just a few days. It’s a pleasure to see the skill and confidence in your hands. A really effective video. Thank you so much

Never thought I'd be mesmerized by someone making a spoon with an axe! What artistry.

Such precision! I'm amazed. Well done.

Wow! This was like watching Michelangelo. Skilled hands and a perfect eye. I was in awe for 28 minutes.

I absolutely adored the way this spoon was carved. Such knowledge and dedication. Thank you.

A real joy to watch this craftsman at work. Thank you for sharing

after a long day of work this is perfect for helping me unwind. beautiful craftsmanship!

Hats off Sir for this good moment of relaxation...and your skill to! that's so rare to see someone doing things like that 👍👍

This got me started spoon carving. I've done three so far, and I love it! It takes me 3 hours to make something like that, but of course, not as pretty, lol.

How very satisfying to have this level of skill! Beautiful spoon!

Truly, a craftsman. I loved it.

this is such a great video in so many ways, the best part actually is that barn is using a cheap bahco axe. i see sooooo many people go nuts about having to get the most fancy and expensive handforged carving axe and so on. But in reality you can make beautiful spoons with simple cheap tools

Thanks for sharing your talent. You have inspired me to do better. At the very least, to sharpen my tools.

What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship!

Jeez, the amount of control he has with those tools is incredible. I’ve never seen someone axe out a blank so fast and so clean.

What a joy to watch such a craftsman. He's so proficient that he makes the whole process look easier than it actually is. Absolutely no word or music required. His hands say everything. I'm a complete novice so tutorials like these are so valuable and appreciated. Looking forward to seeing more of the same. Many thanks 👍

Love the lapel mic. This is how most of them should be used. Great skills

Beautiful work! What a craftsmanship!

Fantastic. The precision and smoothness with the knife is so nice but the precision with the hatchet is also really great. I also really liked the hook knife. Fantastic.

One of the coolest carving videos I’ve ever watched. Your attention to detail is like no other ! Absolutely awesome work! Are these spoons available for purchase ?

No messing about. Now that's what I call a good job. Credit to you sir. Like a proper woodsman, you let the wood tell you where to go with it. Enjoyed this video very much, thank you.

It is nice to see a real craftsman at work.

Wonderful work! You're so comfortable with those tools! I have to say, you've done a great job in maintaining them; they look sharp as anything!

Excellent video! A true master of spoon carving! I watched in silence and amazement! You my friend have gift! God bless! Thanks for sharing! J-Ray Victoria, Texas

I think he most probably can carve a spoon just with his nails! Amazing talent and self confidence. I was waiting to see the hollowed portion go for a hike. He just kept on chopping away my doubts.

A 5 minutes 55 seconds in he has already beaten my best efforts by a mile. This is really wonderful stuff, and will defo get me back into carving

More of these silent carves please! Loving it

Dang dude! You have some serious hatchet skills. I went outside this after watching your video and tried it. I ended up with a pile of kindling

I tried this, and now they call ME , "NINE" !!!

Very nice work, I really appreciate your skill and patience. Nice to see the old craftsmanship methods are still alive.

I massively admire your confidence and accuracy with a hand axe. Simply one tool I never had the confidence to learn

It's like one of these paintings that's upsite down and when the artist flips it over you're like "Oh, that's what that's supposed to be!"

oh the joys of a sharp tool who needs words when art is created . nice scout hat btw ..god bless you and your family my friend

This is such an admirable skill. I wish I could do that It’s so calming to watch you make the transformation from that big hunk of wood into a beautifully crafted spoon. Nice job man

It's a joy watching someone do something they really love and become totally engaged. Thank you for sharing your talent. The spoon is lovely.

I'm sorry when I put a axe or a hatchet in my hand I turned into caveman. You are gifted it's a work of art good job and video

Friggin amazing axe skill. Edit. And with everything else.

Such mastery!! I also wanted to add that the sharpness of his tools seems to just as "next level"!

🤯 that was just amazing!!! Brilliant, Sir Barn, brilliant.

For having not spoken a word, this guy sure had a chip on his shoulder!🤣 Well done sir!😁

Nearly 13k views and only 386 likes? Really? Come on people. This is a superb film for a list of reasons: The only talking is done by the tools and the wood. The carving techniques on display are classic, time-honoured and a delight to watch. The wood itself is beautiful, as soft as an apple - a joy to see and hear the slices peeling away. The eagle-eyed will have spotted the rounded tips to the knives, to prevent drag and cut-in. And the size of that spoon-knife! This film deserves ten times the views and a matching number of likes. If you're a carver and don't click that button, then shame on you.

AWESOME work brother!! Your attention to details and skills are amazing! Great work!! Thank you!

Hi Barn, lovely piece of work. Art and craftsmanship rolled into one. I like how you start by hacking away at a piece of wood and finish with a delicate spoon. And i learned a lot too. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍🖖😎🐶🦴

😲 He is SOO precise with that axe..

When he starts the bowl with the axe, i hold my breath. The I remember it's Barn, and I breathe again!

He made this look incredibly easy. My new favorite video.

It’s so satisfying to watch an expert craft something so beautifully that we think of as so ordinary.

Nice to see no layout implements in use. The eye is always the best judge.

thank you youtube recommendations

Its amazing to watch a true hands craftman, make a spoon and cause to have alot of appreciation at his skills.

Beautiful. Wonderful craftsmanship.

You can tell this is a guy who’s been doing this for a long time. Amazed how much precision he has while hacking away with an axe.

I have a sneaking suspicion that he's done this before.

yes ... you perfectly mastered it, the pattern in mind, hand tools, and hop ! you get it out . I envy your skills about axe cutting.

Finest axework ive ever seen and im no slouch. phenomenal.
