    I have been sharpening since i was 10 and was taught that marker trick from an Marine. I still use that to this day.

  • @Echowhiskeyone

    I usually use a blue Sharpie for marking tools, in this case an axe. Why? Blue is an unusual color in most tools. Also red and green can be used, whichever suits your eyes.

    Been a Carpenter/Joiner for 45 years and I still use this technique when regrinding on site using an angle grinder.

    Dan, if what I understand from this video, where the bevels (sides) of the blade are asymmetrical (uneven), one should file down the flat side as opposed to the convex side to obtain even bevels (sides) and hence a correct apex (point). Does that make sense? Or, perhaps I misunderstood. Take off metal on the convex (rounded) bevel to match the bevel on the other side to obtain an even apex makes so much more sense. In my opinion. Done it hundreds of times from customers that brought me their axes, both box store and high end, to sharpen. Yes, I have "an axe to grind"; I am a professional sharpener and an outdoors man for over 50 years. Good basic instructional video, though. Cheers 🍁🍺

    A good file is an asset to any sharpening regimen. After I use my file I go back with a fine wire brush to clean the "teeth" out. Cleaning out all of the metal filings, rust and dirt make the file last longer. You'll be glad you did it.

  • @MadDogSurvival

    The inner filament of a sharpie is also a great emergency fire starter!

    Handle for file .4 the kids and not skilled

  • @stillme4084

    I guess it's called a sharpie for a reason.

  • @jameswilcox1633

    Fantastic content! Your "close the gap" advice is spot on, successfully sharpened garden shears👌

  • @rocketman3474

    Holy crap Batman. Dan did it again. Another well produced video that gave me another tool for my toolbox. I’m glad I got to watch the first in this new series, or is the second because I watched the last one twice. Anyway keep up the great work.

  • @Mr_Obvious

    I appreciate your tips like this one. I already do the sharpie thing, learned that from knife sharpening, but over the years your videos have taught me so much. Whoever says you can't teach an old dog new tricks needs to come subscribe to your channel!!! I'm an old dog, been around more years than I like to admit, but I still learn new tricks from seasoned woodsmen like yourself. Thank you for all you do for us!

  • @BradYaeger

    Well that's cool, maybe it will help me finally get better at sharpening things . I've been terrible at it my whole life despite plenty of good advice . Never developed the touch .

  • @stoutkm

    Outstanding video Dan. Thank you. "Another Tool for the Toolbox".

  • @sepehryekebash

  • @mrhalfstep
