CARVEKINGStencil & Carve Pumpkin Carving Kit

Really nice pumpkin carving set that will appeal to novices and experts alike.This has a couple of additional tools - most notably a really clever wheel which you can use to 'cut' the pattern from the paper stencil onto the pumpkin skin. They also come with a book of patterns, which are good for those who are beginners or intermediate - those who are more skilled can download a myriad of patterns from the Internet.If I have a slight criticism, the blades are slightly flimsy, so can't cope with tougher vegetables such as butternut or turnip, but they are absolutely fine for pumpkins.These sets would make ideal gifts, especially for friends and family elsewhere, as they are lightweight to send. They are suitable for kids to use, although I wouldn't allow young kids to use these without supervision.

After several warnings about these kits being flimsy I was a bit worried. However, after arriving very quickly, I found the kit really useful.Despite it being slightly flimsy, if you were careful and took your time, the tools worked perfectly and did what they were supposed to do. We used them on two large pumpkins and they were still fine to use again next year. Easy to use, easy to wash. The free stencils were brilliant and that was a nice addition to the pack. I'd definitely buy a tool kit with stencils.

If you are heavy handed not for you,but fun

Excellent, has some great templates for the pumpkins . Instructions are easy, Would suggest you photocopy the templets you wish to use from the book, that way you can keep the book intact for years to come. and re-use your favourite designs again and again. Tools are very good, sturdy and do the job well. Well worth the money, item arrived within a few days great delivery service

Summary: Awesome fun. Absolute bargain for the price and more than enough to "have a go" at creating some intricate designs rather than the same old toothy smile we always used to do. If you are looking for a professional kit then look elsewhere and spend more money.Pluses: The biggest unexpected bonus were the designs (photocopy them to preserve the book) & easy to follow instructions which we have used to make two beautiful pumpkins (one cat & one owl) we think will be the envy of the trick/treaters this year. The handheld saws were up to the task following the intricate carving design nicely. Great fun using it.Minuses: As expected at this price point the handles to the saws are plastic and the tools will not last long. The rotary stencil broke after the second pumpkin but it is not essential and you could use a scalpel instead. We used an ice cream scoop to shell out the pumpkins as it is better than any tool for that task.

I must stress I am not at all artistic but purchased this kit in the hope I could attempt to create a 'OK' pumpkin for my sons first Halloween ... I was blown away by what I created!The kit comes with the tools to carve your design and a scooper. To create your design, you attach one of the 10 designs to your pumpkin with tape and use a drill (a wheel with spikes) to outline your design onto the pumpkin. You then remove the design and carve along the template to create your masterpiece! The designs range in difficulty from easy to hard and offer tips such as where to start and what sections to remove first.I will use the kit for years to come and I cannot recommend it enough! My pumpkins were the talk of the neighbours and I was secretly very proud of myself!

We've been pumpkin carving as a family for three decades now but I needed some more tools for some friends to use. These sets were great value and the tools are fine as well. I thought the templates were a little disappointing, but I'd happily buy these again and use my own templates.

I bought this because so many reviewers said they'd never carved before and turned out professional looking pumpkins after using this well.. Firstly the designs didn't match the photos on the listing so I was a bit disappointed but the worst part was how badly the ones I did turned out. The designs have 3 levels of difficulty and I went for an easy one.. well... I must be rubbish. See pictures. I was so bad with it (right side pumpkin) that i didn't try another design because they all looked more difficult than this and also were too large for the pumpkin sizes i had. These are definitely intended for larger pumpkins. The pumpkin on the left was free hand.. The tools were not very easy to use either, very small and fidly and hurt my hand pushing hard enough to make an indented outline around the stencil. Maybe ok for childrens hands as another reviewer said. Again, its probably due to my skillset with such things, it's clearly worked for others!

Lätthanterliga verktyg att skära ut mönster i pumpan. Jag är nöjd.

Parecen pequeñas y el material poco resistente, pero debo decir tras haber pasado varios Halloween usando cuchillos y cuchillitos que el producto merece la pena. Cortan bien y vienen con unas plantillas fáciles de usar, volvería a comprarlo.

Schnell, gute Qualität.Mein Sohn hatte Spaß und konnten schöne Kürbise schnitzen.Gerne wieder.

Regalato ad un'intagliatrice di zucche, che sembrava un po' scettica all'inizio, ma poi entusiasta x il lavoro eccellente grazie a questi piccoli attrezzi...consigliatissimi

J'ai été très surprise (agréablement) par la solidité des outils ! La livraison a été rapide et soignée et le produit a dépassé mes attentes.Les outils sont précis et ont largement résisté à une citrouille épaisse. La "pelle" est en plastique dur et a fait également ses preuves dans les mains de mes enfants.Vraiment ravie de mon achat !
