Great. This process can be used on all chisels, plane blades etc. Also, all abrasive faces can be utilised. Try it. This man is great: teaching (the learning), patience, demonstration techniques, voice usage, and end results. Thanks for posting it...

Proper old gent with appropriate years of wisdom. My Dad was a joiner and used his left hand as a strop using a slapping motion. When you're working outside, you don't always have the luxury of a bench and a strop but the oilstone was always on hand.

Maurice, your explanation into wood working tool sharpening is superbe . I have been a carpenter and recreational hunter for 41 years . Blade sharpening is a major factor in being successful in my chosen disciplines . Maybe our technique differs slightly but it is really satisfying to see you only require 2 stones & a clean strop to gain a "beautiful"working edge . Cheers from New Zealand

I recently worked many chisel bagels to bring them back into shape after decades of misuse. Using the veritas jig, I spent hours on a new coarse stone, after initially setting a 25° angle with a bench grinder, to get the bevel edges close to perfect. Granted, I got them sharp, but very easy to resharpen at not exactly the same angle I just gave them. Tried this freehand method last night, sharpening sideways as opposed to straight into the bevel. This guy is spot on! Took no time at all to get a near perfect edge. First time I've seen anyone use this method and it will be a mainstay for me! Kudos to Norton for providing what I believe, is a lost art to honing!

Was interesting to see how Norton recommend sharpening using their stones. I've worked for a number of master woodworkers over the years, and everyone has their own way of doing it. Though, my Norton India stone has cupped over time. I'd be interested to learn how Norton would recommend flattening it.

My "fine" india developed a slight dish as they all do. Working primarily by hand, it has little to no effect. If it does bother you, go out on the front sidewalk with a bucket of water and make larger figure 8's using water to wash things. it will become flat enough.

Some time ago I bought Norton India Fine FB8 I used it a lot for kitchen knife sharpening and also for Stanley 151 spokeshave. It is a great stone, stay flat and cutting good even tough street such as VG10. I can flatten and sharpen spokeshave free hand similar way as on this video, thanks for sharing this. However I learned this probably from Paul Sellers he have great videos about woodworking.

Dear Sirs, Could you please advise me regarding the honing process where you talk about holding down the blade. Is this the ‘out of box/packet’ bevel or are you referring to using the ‘out of box/packet’ as the primary bevel and then lifting the blade ever so slightly to get a new edge. I do apologise if this sounds picky, it’s just sometimes things get lost in translation! Wonderful video! Yours truly ross

My question to NORTON is, why close the Washita mine, but keep the Arkansas mine going. Washita's are way more useful than Arkansas stones, as most old woodworkers will tell you. It probably has something to do with cutting the throat of some of your other stones, as the Washita is very versatile.

Thanks so much for your comment. We are glad to hear you are a fan of our Washita Arkansas Stones. This product has had limited availability for many years based on a number of factors. Norton/Saint Gobain still retain exclusive rights to the Washita quarry location and may decide to re-activate it at some time in the future. We’ll keep you posted!

Great way to sharp for the ultimate best edge. But for daily woodworking, it's probably better to be a bit more aggressive with diamond then water stone or strop. It's technically beautiful, but I'd go crazy doing this for 3% extra sharpness.

Yes, further if one did not care to learn --and/or was time and energy poor as well as had abundance of dollars-- they could pay someone else to sharpen their tools.
