One of my godchildren burned/carved a spoon in school - now they want to start woodcarving as a hobby. Does anyone have a recommendation on good-quality tools that I could gift to my godchild? I've googled but tbh I don't really know how to assess usefulness/quality.

Edit: I am so pleasantly surprised and so grateful for all the helpful and kind answers that I have received! You are all great and lovely people and you've made my day!!

Please include a pair of slice-resistant gloves. Woodcarving tools are *sharp*

Oh god, yes! I would prefer if they don't get hurt because of my gift, that's nightmare material... I actually used cut-resistant gloves when I cooked together with my grandma (dementia=worse motor skills), so I could have thought of that earlier 🤭 thank you for the reminder!
