Perfect! I’ve been watching a lot of vids on this topic and it seems everyone else feels there is only need to address the posterior aspect of the blade, which I found utterly confusing. I’ve been experimenting with just this type of technique and finding it MUCH better and actually helpful in sharpening my edge tools. Bravo 👏🏻
Glad my video has helped you 👍
Thanks Jo...important instruction, method and .... lesson!!👏👏🙌
Thank you 🙂
thank you professor.
Great instructional videos. Thank you so much for your time.
Thank you 🙂
This Old LEATHER SMITH likes UR idea, if U want it 2 B easier try your mixture on a length of string attached 2 a nail, I have used it 4 a long time and find it works very well, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
Nice excellent ways of look after of tools.👍🌹❤️
A sharp tool is a crafter's best friend!
@@JHLeather I ordered and received this leather crafting toolkit from China but the quality is not good.
@@JHLeather by your nice English accent this is my guess you are from UK, Am I right.?
@@JHLeather yes agreed 1000%
Thank ur show. . . .
Benefited me. . . . .
No problem 🙂
شكراً لهذه المعلومة الجيدة جدا جدا جدا بتقدري موفقين من دمشق الياسمين لكل شخص منكم
Thank you 🙂
I just found your channel and I look forward to watching all of them.
Thank you for the tip's
Thank you for this great tutorial. My bevellers need attention and you have saved the day with these clear instructions. I assume the wet or dry sandpaper was used dry? Anaco, Anz.
Hiya, yes I use the paper dry 👍 glad the video was helpful for you 🙂
@@JHLeather Thanks again.........and yes the well made video is very helpful....clear and easy to follow.
Hey, great stuff thank you! Could you do a little video on building a good strop? I'm still using a little tiny piece leather :(
I shall add it to my videos list 👍
Did the video get aired ?
I would say 120 is too coarse, you will take a lot of material off and leave some deep scratches in the metal. I would use 220 at the coarsest but usually I start with 320 and the go to 600 then 1000 grit. The string idea is great, I have been using the wood stir sticks from the coffee shop, cut they dont hold much polish compound.
Hiya, from my experience with the p120 I haven't had any issues with deep scratches in the metal, as long as it's a smooth surface beneath the paper you shouldn't get any. But if you feel it's too much that is totally fine.
Agreed. It's a pretty standard principle with many edged tools. Only use such a coarse grain to remove a lot of material to shape or create an angle or reshape any damage.
Tbf I'd use a stone over wet n dry.
@@sloth_e I am right there with you, I have collected a half century of stones, sand paper wasn't as refined in my day as it is now. But either way, I only go as course as I need to to bring the edge back, anything heavier than that is just removing material and roughing the surface that you then have to go back and smooth out. Day to day leather work a strop is usually plenty to maintain the edge, unless you drop it, hit something hard, or otherwise ding the edge.
I saw a tip where they used leather thread or small diameter cord to strop the inside cutting edge.
Just what i needed as i wasn't sure if you did both sides or how to get inside the #1
Thanx :)
Glad you found it helpful 👍
Thanks Jo! G 👍🏼
No worries 😀
nice.. beveler care! but for next tutorial, could u show us 'how to make the beveler', probably! like the strap pin bar😁
Excelente 👍👍👍
Thank you 🙂
Am interested in what you use for a strop board. You mentioned tallow and powder I believe. Can you elaborate?
Hi Michael, yes its a mix of tallow and carborundum powder on some panel hide suede/flesh side out. You can also use jewellers rouge and other sharpening compounds.
Love you❤️🌹❤️
That was very clear thanks Can I check do you use the same technique on the hollow edge shave tools too or do you have to do it differently?
I have an updated video on this which includes the hollow edge shaves 👍

Where do you get the edge bevelers used in your videos?
I need to sharpen and hone my 10mm French edger but don't have a scrap of 10mm-thick veg tan, what about gluing multiple pieces together and sanding smooth and flat, or would this create two or three (however many seams there are) unwanted micro-ridges?
Heya, yes if you glue some leather together that's wider than 10mm and then trim it down this will give you a nice flush surface to use. 👍
Will bonded poly thread (of which I have many large sizes) work well, or should it be linen or cotton cord (don't have much of this in larger sizes)?
Yeah that should work fine 👍
Thank you for the video. Are your edgers the economy edgers from Abbey England?
Yeah they are
@@JHLeather Thanks!
So this is Zabuza's hobby lol
Hi Jo. Just subbed. Do you buy all your tools separately or buy in bulk from one particular supplier? Cheers
Hiya, thanks for the sub 🙂 I brought most from Abbey England as they are a big supplier here in the UK.
@@JHLeather cheers. I will look them up. I may start cheap and build up items till my skills are any good. Had a browse and learning from your videos. Den
@@BURP39R not sure where you are based but there is Osborne tools and weaver leather supply in the USA.
@@JHLeather despite my avi I'm very much in England! Lol
@J.H.Leather can you recommend a tool supplier in Australia? I brought some edge bevellers online and I don’t get the effect that you do. Not sure if it’s the tools or my technique 🤷♀️
What brand are your edgers and from where did you purchase them?
They are the Abbey England branded ones from Abbey.
Hello I have never seen a leather strop.
Do you us the Flash side to put Rouge on?
Hi David, its panel hide flesh side out and I use a mix of tallow and carborundum powder on it. I think the jewellers rouge would work too. I then have the other side as just leather for fine polishing.
J.H.Leather Thank you.
I like to lessen to your accent.
Thanks again your videos are helpful.
In my mind, jumping from 320 to 600 is a rather large step. When sharpening in never make this larger of a jump.
If it work's there's no need for the extra step were not sharpening Japanese sushi knives after all

Сексуально💃🤝
It doesn’t make any sense to me
