Luckily, this hunting knife had indeed reached the extremes in both toughness and hardness. For Li Younan, who possesses master carving skills, it could still be used forcefully.
Wood carving is a great way to pass the time.
Li Younan was completely immersed in it. He didn't carve to create exquisite artwork; his goal was simple: to make himself less bored, so he carved whatever he felt like.
For materials, he started from his own house, carving things like columns, beams, doors, and windows into flowers, grasses, dragons, and exotic beasts, without affecting the structural integrity.
He naturally recorded some videos during the process.
Besides, Li Younan also went nearby to dig up many ores containing colored metallic substances. After crushing these ores, he made pigments to color the carved areas.
