Making a spoon blank from round wood

My previous axe work video showed me starting with a nice rectangular block of wood but often we start with round wood from a branch. So here's how I start off making spoon from round wood, in this case rather gnarly lump of cherry. I also show making stop cuts with a saw, which is what I teach beginners rather than doing everything with the axe. There's a hopefully informative commentary so turn the sound on.
