The BeaverCraft S18X+ is a nine-piece wood carving set built around 1066 high-carbon steel blades and European walnut handles. It bundles a sloyd knife, whittling knife, roughing knife, detail knife, two chip carving knives, a spoon knife, a gouge and a hand-forged drawknife, plus a leather strop and polishing compound. The drawknife with its leather sheath is the upgrade over the older S18X and handles bark removal and rough shaping. It suits beginners who want one kit across several carving styles and hobbyists who want a compact roll to carry. Rivals at this level often skip the drawknife and strop, but carbon steel needs drying and oiling to stay rust-free.
