Although many books have already been published on sharpening, the practice of sharpening has continued to evolve, as Richard Wile emphasizes. His book is aimed at both beginners and advanced users who wish to benefit from the essence of over four decades of sharpening experience from a passionate woodworker.
The book offers a practical introduction to the principles and workflows of sharpening, including material knowledge regarding steel.
The described techniques cover sharpening the most important hand tools used in the woodworking shop, such as plane irons, chisels, carving tools, and cabinet scrapers, as well as (kitchen) knives.
Wile clearly focuses on manual methods and provides product-independent guidance to achieve impressive results quickly with an effective selection of sharpening tools and minimal effort.
