I spent a few days in beautiful Dorset in the South West of England with a very talented friend and full time craftsman Martin Hazell
In this video he shows his technique for carving a Spatula so that you can hopefully replicate it yourself using simple tools as it's a fun project to do whilst learning a lot along the way
To view more of Martins work and that of his brother and wife, feel free to check out his Instagram - / madeinthevale
To connect with Martin personally reg the work he does feel free to speak to him via Facebook - profile.php?...
As always I appreciate you watching
Peace

Refreshing to watch a spoon carver with a well developed sense of humour in addition to his skill. Really enjoyable video. Also, great that the project didn't reply on one owning a shave horse. Cheers Martin and Zed. 👍

This was a great video. Very interesting and Martins constant subtle jokes had me laughing an unusual amount for a video about a spatula. I particularly enjoyed the constant references to that bloke I've probably never heard of, Nick Westerman the genius. Nice work

For some reason I was thinking of Star Wars when I watched your recent video with Mike, Zed. The matching shirts kind of gave the whole thing an Obi wan/Annakin vibe. I can just see it now [cue the wavy flashback lines]... Zed - "The circle is now complete. Once I was but the learner. Now _I_ am the master." Mike - "Only a master of evil, Zed!" Both opponents draw their Mora bushcraft knives (Zed's with a red handle, of course) and engage in a kuksa carving duel...
