What Carvers Say

Michelle
5/5

Loved making my bird. This was my first ever attempt at carving. I found the process very cathartic, and was so pleased with the finished bird. I was so proud of myself when it was done. I have given it to my sister who was so impressed I had made it for her. Have started on the cherry wood, and hope it turns out as well.

5/5

Small handle, sharp blade. Great small handle. Sharp blade that cuts cleanly right out of the box. Love this knife, love the videos that Beavercraft posts. Easy to follow and adjust to my liking. Now definitely my favorite knife of the 6 I currently use.

5/5

Good craftsmanship. This is my first carving hatchet so I don't have a lot of experience. All I can say is this thing is sharp out the box and all you need to do to keep it sharp is strop it properly. I like the weight, look, and effectiveness of this tool.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about wood carving and our products

Basswood is the ideal choice for beginners — it's soft, consistent, and easy to carve with minimal force. Butternut and white pine are also beginner-friendly. All BeaverCraft DIY kits include pre-shaped basswood blanks so you can start carving right away.

No experience is necessary. Our beginner kits come with everything you need — pre-shaped wood blanks, a sharp carving knife, and access to step-by-step video tutorials. Most beginners complete their first project within a few hours.

Each DIY kit includes a pre-shaped basswood blank, a BeaverCraft carving knife, sandpaper for finishing, linseed oil for sealing, and a link to a detailed video tutorial. Everything you need is in one box — nothing extra to buy.

Use a leather strop with polishing compound to maintain a razor-sharp edge. For deeper sharpening, a 1000/3000 grit whetstone works well. BeaverCraft tools come pre-sharpened to a 20° bevel angle and typically only need stropping to maintain their edge.
