A half-day spoon carving course with Path Carvers in Birmingham.

What is spoon carving?

Spoon carving uses green, unseasoned wood and three tools: an axe to rough the shape, a straight knife to refine it, and a hook knife for the bowl. It needs almost no space and no machines, which is why it is the usual way into woodwork. Most people finish a spoon in a day and leave knowing enough to carry on at home.

Questions people ask before booking

Do I need to bring my own tools?

Path Carvers does not state on their page whether tools are provided for this course. Ask them before you book, because a hand woodworking course can assume you bring your own.

Is £30 a fair price for this?

Most half-day woodworking courses on this site cost between £40 and £100. At £30 this one sits below almost all of them, out of 33 we hold a price for. Price alone will not tell you which suits you: group size and what is included matter as much.

Who do I book with?

You book directly with Path Carvers. Woodwork UK does not take bookings, does not add a fee, and is not paid for the link. They set the dates, the price and the number of places.
