Just got my latest issue of Carving Magazine and there on page 58 is an article by Rick on Sharpening. Had no idea it was in the making.

A sharpening video would be like watching paint dry to most people. That reminds me of a story; Okay! A short story. When I was young, we lived in a very small town called Rock Island (named after a rock of course). There wasn't much to do since it was basically desert. I remember the old folks bringing kitchen chairs outside to sit and watch the chrome rust on the bumpers. Once in a great while something exciting would come through town; like a dust-storm with dirt-devils. The tumbleweeds would pile up in the ravines twenty feet deep. Us young-uns would jump off the cliff into the pile; it was great fun getting into the pile. When we hit the Tumbleweeds, we would crash down through them; only to we realize we were stuck like a fly in a web. Back then, parents never wondered where you might be unless you missed supper; then they might go looking for your body. It can be difficult to find kids when they are covered with a pile of tumbleweeds. Luckliy, my older brother had a sharp pocket knife and cut his way out. Ha!!!, And you were doubting I could tie this story to sharpening. Last edited by rick-in-seattle; 01-07-2006 at 06:53 PM. |
