Getting Ready for the Whittling Chip

I’ll be helping my son’s den get their “whittling chip” so that they’re allowed to carry a pocket knife to scout activities not held at the school.

Here are some resources that I’ve found that will help in teaching the boys about the “whittling chip”, projects and knife safety:

• The Whittling Chip Award from the Desert Pacific Council.
• Soap Carving for Children of All Ages shows how to make wooden carving tools and presents a number of simple projects.
