Bamboo Tools
Why Bamboo?
For centuries, Oriental potters have relied on bamboo as their material of choice for tools to work with clay. Here's why:
- Durability: bamboo is a grass with a long-running grain. This makes it incredibly durable, flexible, and easy to shape with a sharp knife. Once shaped, bamboo holds an edge that stands up to heavy use longer than most woods.
- No Oils Needed: bamboo does not have to be impregnated with water-resistant oils. It will never become soft, waterlogged, cracked or warped even if left to stand in water for extended periods.
- A Wise Choice: bamboo is one of the most abundant and renewable natural resources we have. With its intricate root system and high growth rate, one stand of bamboo can be reharvested every 3 to 5 years (or selectively harvested every year).
