After reading Hannas “What to bring on a perfect paradise island” I felt I had to write my own text about it because I have many time thought about the topic of this weeks Studio Friday, Desert Island. What should I bring to a desert island? For the moment it’s an easy answer on that question. Of course I should bring my knife, because with that I could do so many things. Probably I should bring a saw to, because it is hard to cut down a tree with only one knife. And when you work a lot with the knife it becomes blunts so then I think my third thing will be my whetstones. Hopefully there are some trees on that desert island to…

And if I could take a fourth thing I should bring my stereo so I could listen to some music when I work with my knife…

Wonderful photograph!

Oh that sounds so perfect!
Love the saw! That would be quite an adventure for sure using that thing! I admire your courage! Great idea for the stone to sharpen the knife
Welcome to SF!!
True, it would be hard to cut down a tree only with a knife, it would sure keep you busy though, hehe

Clever! I would bring the knife but then have no way to sharpen it.

Very practical thinking to bring a knife. I don’t have a knife in my studio though… well, I have a craft knife but somehow I don’t think that would get me very far.

Mmmh,that is a great pick too! Good point with the knife and the saw! And don’t forget lots of batteries for the stereo!

Oh!! I LOVE that little knife! it’s beautiful!! Hmm… I should think that having you for a neighbour on the island would be beneficial!
Enjoy the weekend!
