[Woodcarver] Flexcut's "Carvin' Jack"

[Loren Woodard]

Don:

A friend of mine recently sent me a Carving Jack as a gift.  I have played
with it some but not done any carving with it yet.  Better tighten you belt,
that puppy might remove your britches.  LOL.  Enjoy your new knife, I'm
looking forward to mine.
