- What is the Japaneese twist?
To get the flat side really flat just using whetstones is possible. It is a way to test patience. For woodworkers not interested in this test there is the option to get help from machines. Removing steel in the center of the flat side will make it easier to afterwards flatten the chisel on whetstones. Just like Japanese blacksmiths do for their chisels.
- What to do if there is no wet sharpening machine around?
Also a common grinder can do the job. Please be patient and wait for my next video where i demonstrate how to do it without wasting the blade hardening.
- Which stones are used?
Did you watch the video till the end?
- Where did you get this beautiful chisel?
It is a Ferdin Rubens tool. It came to me on a local second hand market.
- What will it be used for?
There are some ideas in my head and good opportunities to put them in practice. So, let’s see what will happen.
