Our take on the BeaverCraft S15 Wood Carving Knives Set

The BeaverCraft S15 is a three-knife carving set aimed at beginners: a big roughing knife, a detail knife and a small 8 mm blade, all with ashwood handles soaked in linseed oil. Blades are 1066 carbon steel, so they hold an edge well but need drying and oiling to keep rust off. The set ships with a leather strop and polishing compound, plus a beginner booklet and step-by-step tutorial. At $39.99 at Amazon as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range across the six stores that carry it new.

Pros

Cons
  • Carbon steel rusts if left damp or un-oiled

Questions and answers

Is the BeaverCraft S15 good for a complete beginner?
Yes. It is built as a starter set, with a roughing knife, a detail knife and a small blade, plus a booklet and tutorial. You still need to learn sharpening and safe cuts, but the tools are ready to use.
Do the blades rust?
They are 1066 carbon steel, which rusts if left wet. Wipe and dry them after each session and apply a light oil; the included strop and compound keep the edge maintained.
What is in the box?
Three carving knives, a leather strop, polishing compound, a beginner booklet and a canvas roll-up case.
How does it compare with the BeaverCraft S13 or S17 sets?
The S15 is a three-knife beginner set. Larger BeaverCraft sets add more blade shapes and sometimes a sharpening stone, which suits carvers who already know which profiles they use. For a first set, the S15 covers the basics at a lower price.
Is $39.99 a good price?
It is the best new price among the six stores listing it as of November 5, 2026, and sits at the low end of its recent range. Sets with a strop typically sell for more.
Do I need a sharpening stone too?
Not immediately. The strop and compound maintain the edge, but a stone helps after heavy use or if a knife arrives dull.
Where is the BeaverCraft S15 Wood Carving Knives Set cheapest?
At The Merri Artist, for $33.93, 25% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the BeaverCraft S15 Wood Carving Knives Set?
