Thread: Sharpening a chisel

I do the back with sandpaper on a flat glass plate, wet and dry start with 120 and work my way up to 1200, there is a tiny bit of pitting left now, you can see it but can’t feel it.

My mate likes to round the edges on chisels like people do on planes, said that was just the way he was taught (Aussie), frustrating as hell as I have to go around and fix them all...
