Here is the one from the Chestnut. I don't think I'll carve anything small with it again, It is very difficult to get fine detail out of. Carves a lot like soft pine.

Ben, If that's mine (carved from the 1892 chestnut), it looks fine to me! If it was difficult to carve, I sure can't tell by looking at it. I can't wait to display these works of art. It looks like there is a soul behind those eyes. Thanks!
