7 Piece smaller size

Perfect hardness for practicing wood carving. I would order again.

Among the best basswood I've purchased. It's light, solid, carves beautifully and all at an excellent price.As long as this quality is available, CAN USA will be my go to source for prepared small carving sticks.Online buyers should beware of other "imported basswood" offerings, that more often than not, are not basswood, linden, or lime wood and are too hard and "chippy" to carve comfortably.

I’m not sure if it’s my knife or this wood but it splinters which is annoying. BUT it could just be that my knife isn’t sharp enough? Other than that it’s perfect for practice I would recommend it for getting started and learning your 4 basic cuts.

I have been a woodcarver for over 50 years and my primary carving wood is Basswood. In addition to my carving hobby I have also been making woodcarving knives for other carvers for 38 years. It has taught me that two things are necessary for doing a quality carving. You need a knife that is sharp and stays sharp. You also need a good piece of wood to work with. When I finish making a carving knife the first thing I do is grab a piece of Basswood and test the edge on it. As a result I work with Basswood every day. One thing I know is that not all Basswood is created equal. I have run across a wide range of hardness over the years. Some of it is as hard as Walnut which makes it hard to work with and tends to dull edges. However a truly good piece of Basswood is a joy to carve. I was running low on my Basswood stock so I decided to order this wood to try out. I can honestly say that it is some of the best Basswood I have ever tried. When I run out of this batch I will be back for more.

Ordered the 24 piece Pack of 1x1x4 size sticks, the wood came out very soft, a bit less polished than beavercraft’s, but somehow felt a bit softer to me, maybe a bit more chippy. Overall I really like it, especially for the price.

Very good quality compared to others I have purchased from other sellers.

I am just a beginner at carving but I have tried basswood from three venders, and these are the best basswood that I have gotten so far and was also a good price

Before ordering this kit I chopped branches from a tree in my yard and carved what I wanted from them. I found the wood of the tree branches quite hard so decided to try Bass wood, which is supposed to be much softer.Maybe my tools are not sharp enough, but I found this wood very difficult to carve. Would certainly not recommend it for kids who could slip and cut themselves , Perhaps adult beginners would have more success than I have,
