Critical Reviews

"This is the perfect book for those who want to expand their skills and try their hand at whittling."--Woodworking Crafts

"The book begins with an overview of tools and materials and a guide to essential techniques, such as tool sharpening, knife holding and different methods for adding eyes. The projects... range in difficulty, getting progressively harder as you work through the book. For each project, Peter provides a design and talks through how he made the piece step by step...Throughout the book, he shares useful tips he has learnt over his carving career that will elevate your work." -- Wood Carving
