Hazel Ladle.

Here is a ladle I have managed to make with my Mora Companion.

I really enjoyed making it and found the bowl easier to whittle/ carve out as it is rather large and almost canoe shaped. It is a very good size for use in deep pans while making stews/ broths for example.

My son Louis helped me to sand down and watched the process throughout. 

I can see this becoming a little habit/ addiction now. Better than recreational drugs though eh?? :)
