This series should be required viewing for everyone starting out. Although I have 9 or 10 years under my belt, it was a great refresher and I picked up quite a bit of new info.
Great Stuff. Hat tip to Mr Van Dyke
Awesome deep dive into sharpening! Worth the price of admission, for sure.
I have so many sharpening systems. I have jettisoned them all in favor of what is shown here. My tools are sharper then they have ever been.
