Sharpening Blades The Process Takes A Lifetime To Master
Sharpening blades the process takes a lifetime to master. Even if you sharpen well there’s still always room to improve.
Today, with the continuous development and upgrading of grinders, the job of Sharpening Blades has become much more effortless. You can easily buy most new plane blades, chisel blades and so on come from the store ready to use. If the cutting edge of the blade is not finished when purchased or has been badly chipped, just carefully smooth the backside first, and then start the sharpening process with the grinder. My grandfather told me that he always used a coarse stone, as was a custom to dress blades. Mechanical tools were not generally used then in Japan, but today there are many types of machines and tools available to dress or redress a blade a faster process. You can also modify the blade to suit your preferences. It is best to maintain the original bevel angle of the blade until you know differently. However, no matter how well the machine supports it, the sharpening itself and honing of the final edge must be done by hand, no matter what.
