Hi 
I would like to  make the pine cone ornaments seen at the Little Shavers  
site.  Can you  recommend tools for carving these?

Anne the entire pinecone is made with a single knife.  There are  many good 
knives out there,  mora frost knife, flexcut pelican, helvie,  dunkle, many 
many more.....some priced around 15 some of the fancier ones run  around 35.  can 
be a carving or a chip carving knife but regular carving  knife is better for 
the whittling down to shape.
