Default I can Sharpen these tools!!

Hey all I don’t get a lot of time to mess around on the web but wanted to share me leanings.....

I got the (Stubai) Marv chisel set (Love it by the way). I mad a holder for the chisels and needed to ream out a hole for the larger #5 20mm. While doing so I managed to hit a nail in the wood with my #5 20mm . I put a nick in it about 2-3 mm deep So I put it away and fixed the problem with other tools.

Well I got the chisel out today along with my old knife and I followed Everette Ellenwoods video on sharpening and was able to bring them to a razor sharp edge. WOW!! this video helped me out a lot and I must say to the folks asking sharpening questions they should give it a peak. I know I sound like a rep for him but I knew nothing of sharpening knives or chisels before I got it and right away I'm putting an edge on stuff.!!!!!!!

Just my 2,000,000 cents

Well done Chizeler. Nothing like a little success to keep you interested. With sharp tools, there are no limits to what you can carve, if you set your mind to it.

Enjoy your carving. Sharpening is one of the toughest skills to master. Congratulations,

Bob
