- This is how I show my students to sharpen their swivel knives. It is a great way to start because it only costs a $1.50 for sand paper, and you are are on your way. $15 for honing compound and you can polish your blade to a mirror like surface.

Thank you for the video
I haven’t been good with a swivel knife but I have finally broke down and purchased a Barry King swivel knife and I am making it my personal goal to get better. Obviously a sharp blade is key to moving towards that goal. Thanks for this video and so many more.
Good job. How about a video on sharpening various styles edgers?
Thanks for the video Tim. Where do you get the polishing compound you use? I've really been enjoying the Tuesday Tips.
I previously used Formax, it's a green chrome oxide compound, and I liked it a lot. The stuff in the video is Veritas brand from LeeValley. I just got it and opened it for the video, but I don't think I like it as much. The chrome oxide is suspended in wax, so it applies to the leather better when it is warm. The wax in the Veritas seems a little harder, so I might just need to warm it up more. The Formax you can buy on Amazon, I have a link up in the video description.
I lost several SK s just found them .. How best to clean them up .. oxidized and sticky handles ..?
Tim, how do I sharpen a ruby blade?
What size is that barrel? And what size blade is that swivel knife?
