Recently picked up the skew chisel after not using one for years. Currently takes me about twice as long to make a tree using one compared to the multi tool method as I'm still a bit nervy and don't have as much control as id like, but oh boy does it leave a smooth finish.

Santas reindeer have travelled the world, but so to have Pats, with him sending some to mainly Irish customers in the US, Austrailia, Asia, and most counties in Europe. 🦌🦌🦌
