I got hold of a decent lump of Rowan so made a small rough mallet with part of it, then used that to batton the next piece to carve a "rustic" spoon, my first attempt. It needs sanding smooth & oiling but overall I am happy with end result for both.
Knife used was Mora Companion, I tried the Hultafors Craftsman on the long handle cuts for comparison but this defo needs sharpening.
My partner has a Mora 163 for her Forest School stuff so making the bowl was a relatively easy & satisfying task.
