It's Halloween. I know there are some crazy creative people on this site. I want to see your pumpkins...and the Fiddleback (or other tools) you used to carve 'em.

Here's the one I did this evening:



Carved with a Bushcraft Karda (kinda pictured). Slight dentistry issue, oops.
 
we didnt do any this year but i came across this pic looking at years past just now

im headed outta town in the morning for "the worlds largeest outdoor cocktail party"....even though they dont like to refer to it as that
 
I didn't use a fiddleback to carve this Yoda pumpkin. I used the knife I made out of an old rusty bolt. The top was carved out with the back of the knife with the threads from the bolt acting like a saw. I used a stencil and carved out the basic shape with this knife and then used a little pumpkin carving saw to take out the shapes.

My Dawgkin - not carved, but fits in with the UGA sub-theme.

So I'm sitting on my porch, Jack O'lantern all lit up, big bowl of candy on hand, sharpening a few knives to pass the time, and I don't have any kids stopping by!

I have Snickers for goodness sakes!

Hmm, You're sharpening knives on the porch my good man. :eek: :D
 
Here is a Boba Fett pumpkin I carved with one of the best fiddleback patterns, a 3/32" scandi bushcraft karda.
