We've got the V-tools coming up in the next issue. Charles Berold (who makes those deviously small 22 1/2-degree V-tools) demonstrates how to sharpen a V-tool.

If I can I'll go back to that poor old rusty v-gouge tomorrow, Keith. And I'll take my camera with me. I'll see what I can get fro you.

Susan's tutorial will be here a lot quicker than the one in the magazine; it's in the holiday issue, which comes out in November...

With regards to a tutorial on sharpening V-tools, Chris Pye has a pretty exhaustive one on his web site covering just that subject.

Maybe you have been rescued from posting tomorrow! ;-)

Thanks Susan...much apreciated. I have a bunch of stones but never got the edge I should. Just started carving ( did a little relief in the past) and was sharpening the knives and gouges last night....now I'll have to redo them

I just saw a tip on Popular Science magazine that you can remove rust by rubbing it with tin foil? never tried it.....but will!

I use crumpled up tin foil to clean off my grill...it works like a super aggressive SOS pad...
