Pic related is my first spoon. When carving I suddenly realised I had chosen a piece of wood with a soft centre, which I admit wasn't the smartest thing I ever did. It's not usable as the spongy centre runs straight through the concave part. I finished it anyway for practice.
I do not own a spoon knife so I did the concave part by chipping, whittling and a lot of sanding.
Currently working on my second.
