Swivel knife picture

[Randahl]

This was made entirely with swivel knife cuts. No other tools were used in the making of the picture. There is also no color or finish on it. I originaly made this to enter in a contest that required only knife work. It did well in the contest and I told several members that I would post it here. I plan to bevel and background it soon.

Doing a "fingercut" picture was a lot of fun and I will be doing some more of this type work.

Questions? Comments?

Thanks for looking.

Randahl,

Very nice work!

The ladybugs make a nice addition.

Question - Did you use just one blade or different blades to achieve the texturing?

I really like it for its uniqueness. I've never thought about using swivel knife cuts to create textures like those.

That's really cool! I would leave it just the way it is. Maybe a bit of oil.

It was all done with one blade. The SK 3 swivel knife with a 3/8" straight blade. The only difference is the depth of the cuts.

Great Work!!

Something we all can strive for. Ed
