Thank you sir! I bought a cheap skiving knife online and was wondering why this is so difficult. I sharpend it for about an hour and cuts like butter. The marker trick is great. Now my wallet wont have to have edges 1cm thick. You should see this thing, you would laugh. Thanks keep up the great work. I will order a knife from you in the future.

I would only be guessing, but I would assume you drilled a hole in the end first, then drove the awl blank into it. A little grinding to shape then finish on the paper. Wood burning is a nice touch, but turning wood completely black, use vinegar and fine steel wool in a glass jar for a week. Once the steel wool is gone, place you wood in it or brush it on. It may take two applications but dries to a black finish. Just a different method, Blessings!

when you burnt the wood and then you used danish oil. after that did you polish again? Burning wood -does it make waterproof or for other reason?. I saw Japanese carpenters burn the wood and installed on the wall and I thought to protect it from rotting and insects. what is the ideal size of the awl length and diameter of the awl handle(max diameter)? Thanks

Terrick, Thank you so much for all of your time spent making your videos so informative. One quick question regarding the awl blade that I am confused with. Some people say that you should snip the very tip of the awl blade. Some say that you shouldn't. Can I ask your opinion on this? Do you snip the very tip on your awls before sharpening? Look forward to your reply. Regards Rahul.

Great video ! Just a silly question as I am a novice ... what grit sand papers did you use? You started with 360, and ended with 1200, what were the sand papers you used in between? And can I sharpen the blades without removing the awl blade from the wooden holder... I am not that confident in removing it and placing it back 🙄

You can absolutely sharpen your blade without removing it from the wooden holder. Im not certain that I did use an inbetween grit for this...but you certainly can if you feel it necessary. 😊

My thoughts on the editing. We need to see what's going on more than your face. If you look at the work and not at the camera, the camera should be looking at the work too. Sorry but the focus is not good either. I don't nitpick on these things usually but honestly it was too much for me to handle.
