Thanks to PDrake for clueing me in on the hook knife. I did end up re-working this guy a few times, due to a few slips of the blade, but ater a few more projects I think I could learn to love my hook knife. These are ones I did via X-Acto #11 blade I've been doing little guys and selling them at a sunset festival at the beach. The little ones are carved from 1/2" x1/2 " basswood sticks, medium ones are from 1"x 1/2 " and the bigger ones ore from 3"x3" basswood.
