So, random question. Anyone on my timeline awood whittler? Specifically anyone blind or visually impaired? I picked up acheat whittling kit once upon a time and would like to try it again with a much better whittling knife to start maybe. Just an errant thought though as like mot things it seems stupidly visual.

@blindbat84 I did some whittling with a Swiss Army Knife and wood when I joined the scouts. The first thing to make is a tent peg. I had sight back then, so I'm not exactly certain if there's something you need to do different without it. I just remember angling the knife slightly and shaving off to form the shape you want. Never got beyond tent pegs mind you
