I think the spoons carved like this offer a rustic feel that is enjoyed by anyone who holds one of these spoons.  Also it is very cathartic to sit, carve and whittle away until you get this unique piece.  Give it a try in your woodshop or even on your front porch.  It can be done anywhere and it is fun.
