Having some nice walnut around, I decided to make some spoons from it. I’ve got seven here for sale. The two longest ones, #3 and #5 were made with a pair of salad servers in mind, a pair of matching opposites, but each could be a good general use spoon as well. They are 14″ (35cm) long. The compact and curvy serving spoon in the middle, #4, is 8″ (20cm) long. The other four are 11″-12″ long, good for general kitchen duties, cooking, stirring, serving. All surfaces are straight from the cutting edge.

There’s a shot of the back side of them. The ones in the middle were carved when the log was absolutely fresh and the white sapwood holds its color for some interesting contrast. The two on the outer edges were also carved right on the heartwood-sapwood border, but after a couple weeks in the log. The sapwood had begun to mellow in color. #2 and #6 have a light green milk paint on the handles and #7 has the same on the ball finial.

Here are the handles closer up (not in the same order as the other photos). You can zoom in to see more detail.

And a close-up of the backs of the handles.

There they are again, with a metric and imperial measuring stick for scale. The prices listed below include shipping. If you’re interested, email me at dandkfish@gmail.com. Let me know if you’d like to send a check or receive a PayPal invoice. Thanks!
- #1, #2, #4, #6, #7 are $160 each.
- #3 and #5 are $350 for the pair.
UPDATE: All of the spoons have sold. Thank you.
Hello Sir. I love, and envy your work. I was wondering if you are the same David Fisher that photographed for Ortho , the woodworking soft cover?
