Description
Excerpt from Practical Carving
The patience that was exhausted upon me, while training my youthful hands to hold the knife properly, was certainly not appreciated by me at the time.
I could not see why it was important that my thumb, instead of the forefinger, should be placed on the back of the knife, when the latter way seemed more easy. Neither did I realize it to be an accomplishment to be able to carve with the left hand equally as well as with the right.
