Pre-drawn · Soft · Beginner-Friendly
Basswood – the ideal carving wood for beginners
Basswood is the world’s preferred wood for carving beginners: soft, uniform in grain and barely splinters. The pre-drawn blank in the BeaverCraft Dala Horse wood carving kit clearly shows where material needs to be removed – so you can focus on technique rather than design.
BeaverCraft C1 whittling knife – sharp blade, secure grip
The BeaverCraft C1 is one of the best-selling whittling knives worldwide. The carbon steel blade comes factory-sharp and glides effortlessly through basswood. The ergonomic ash wood handle provides comfortable grip even during longer sessions. For the Dala Horse, the C1 is ideal: it allows both rough removal and the fine contours of mane and legs.
From blank to colourful Dala Horse – carve and paint
The illustrated guide shows each step with photos and clear instructions. After carving, you can paint your Dala Horse with acrylic paints to create a unique decorative object – a wonderful personalised gift. The kit also includes safety tips for proper knife handling.
