great info!

Let me just say you do NOT need the microbevels, you can just hone the entire bevel and while it takes more time, the larger edge is worth it.

ROFLMAO
Or perhaps they hired a bunch of Mexicans to chisel away the building in the basement, and than flew a plane into it to cover it up

Well explained video friend, although I don't use a guide. Takes too much time, which should be spent working. In the trade, the work-shy often used sharpening as a means of 'having a beak' from some onerous task or another I should add. Maybe they still do! :)
Good guide for the newbies Happy Christmas

So thats what Bush did! he put planing blades on the front of the aircraft he ordered to fly into the building

Would it cut the world trade center in half?
-
would that blade cut a sheet of paper freshly ?

Nice video sir.
I have been trying to sharpen my blade, but
have not been able to get it really sharp.
I just put the blade in a chisel and set the angle at 25 degrees and sharpen it. I then
sharpen the back.
You sir, sharpen the blade at 25 degrees
and after this at 30 degrees to get a second
level and after this 32 degrees or so to get
a 3 microlevel.
Is this correct, sir? I will try your method.

Nice video. I use the same Veritas water stone pro sharpening set with the mk2 guide myself. It makes it an easy job.
I have never tried the steel rule trick though.

Let me get this right... You flatten the back of the blade, and then you tilt it up with the thickness of a rule, and flatten it again? That's going to give an edge like a cold-chisel, so how would the frog seat well on that? This sounded a bit suspect to me. I tried it and I ditched it.

It does introduce a slight back bevel. You only need to flatten it again if you don't get on with this method. But it cuts down the time for polishing the back significantly. Still not for everyone - just demonstrating a well discussed and used method of sharpening.
