How to Maintain your Gouges - 1

You've started with properly commissioned tools (of course!) but, as you carve away, the impact of steel on wood takes it's toll; nothing is permanent. So what can we do about it? In these two lessons I'll be looking at how to maintain that correctly shaped bevel and keenly sharpened edge. Normally we maintain our blades by regularly stropping as we feel we need it, either by hand or power. But there's a price to pay! There really is. In the last few minutes of this video I'll describe something that, to me, is very profound: bedrock. What I call the 'life cycle of a carving tool'. You won't find this described elsewhere and understanding it will completely change your ideas about sharpening. Seriously. It's one of the shiniest nuggets on our Woodcarving Workshops channel.
