I'm completely new to wood carving and I'm eager to start making wooden spoons. Since I'm located in Europe, I'd love to know of any good carving sets specifically from European brands. I'm looking for a set that includes a straight knife and a hook knife and would appreciate recommendations on which beginner-friendly kits or specific models might be the best for getting started.

For EU brands, I'd suggest checking out Morakniv. They have some great options for spoon carving. If you're interested in more artisan tools, there's a list of recommended brands and tools available too. Just to make sure you get the right tools, I'd consider trying Morakniv's tools specifically tailored for beginners.
When you start wood carving, keeping your tools sharp is key, no matter the price. If you're on a tight budget, getting a cheaper knife set is fine, but definitely make sure to invest in safety gear. Nothing ruins the fun like a cut finger!
Good starting wisdom, thanks!
I've seen Morakniv a lot. Which specific tool would you recommend as a starter for making wooden spoons?
