I'm feeling a bit sheepish this morning. Yesterday I picked up a new ceramic 10K stone and a strop because I realized this week that my combo whetstone was not 4K/8K like I thought, but rather 1K/4K. For over a year I thought my tools were "sharp". Well, after spending last evening sharpening all my chisels and plane blades to 10K plus a light stropping, even my cheapest #4 is ejecting shavings with ease. I can't believe I'd gone this long without tools that's were actually sharp!! Especially ironic listening to the latest @finewoodworkingmagazine #shoptalklive episode while I plane this morning and hearing @kenney.matt and @pekovichwoodworks voices in my head... "Get sharp!".. #woodworking #handtools #scarysharp #plane #learnsomethingneweveryday
