This one has two: a C1 with a sheath sized for a child, and a C4 for an adult. Both have oak handles, both are sharp on arrival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are two blanks as well, so nobody is waiting for a turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA C1 carving knife with sheath, a C4 carving knife with sheath, two basswood blanks, twelve sheets of sandpaper in mixed grits, cut-resistant tape, paints, two brushes, two pencils, a printed booklet and a video tutorial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy mushrooms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA mushroom is a stem and a dome, which means the whole figure is two curved surfaces meeting. There is no face to get wrong and no proportion to judge, so a child's mushroom and an adult's mushroom both come out looking like mushrooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat is the difference between this and a figure kit. Carving side by side only works if both results are satisfying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat people do with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two carvers usually work at different speeds and finish at different times, and the sandpaper is where they converge: twelve sheets across mixed grits is enough for both to sand thoroughly, and sanding is the part a younger carver can do without supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe paints come last, and by then the two mushrooms will not match. That is generally considered the good outcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf the younger carver is the nervous one, the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/christmas-tree-wood-carving-kit\"\u003eChristmas Tree kit\u003c\/a\u003e is built around a rounded-tip knife instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis set contains tools with sharp edges. Handle them carefully, and use each tool only for the purpose it was designed for. Recommended from 14, with adult supervision for younger carvers. In carving the blunt knife is the dangerous one, since it has to be forced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eManufacturer and EU responsible operator\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by BeaverCraft, Ukraine.\u003cbr\u003e\nResponsible economic operator in the European Union under Regulation (EU) 2023\/988: BeaverCraft GmbH, Mörsenbroicher Weg 191, 40470 Düsseldorf, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Creatifwood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48055252025475,"sku":"DIY09","price":72.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/8818\/8035\/files\/diy-09-01_6884ab0d-8b77-4907-8669-6cde0525bf78.jpg?v=1788291963","url":"https:\/\/creatifwood.fr\/products\/mushrooms-wood-carving-kit","provider":"CreatifWood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
