Small chisel sharpening??

[Jacobeen]

Well put another couple hours into them. One is a Swan chisel 1/2 inch. Man it got sharper compared to the other off brands. Got it slicing paper in about 30 minutes of work. I guess quality is quality.

Swan has great history, produced quality tools and will reward your care

Larry (Omaha) here are some pics of two of them mine came from Amazon and has made a whole world of difference to the results.

I have a half dozen or so that look very similar, best advice I have seen on here so far is buy a decent diamond sharpening stone. Mine came from Amazon and is worth it's weight in gold.

I use a piece of 400 or 600 grit paper on a stone (usually marble) tile. If you need a guide, just angle cut a piece of wood and hold file down on it and slide both over paper.

I use a 6" narrow flat flexible steel ruler wrapped in the above mentioned grit paper, always worked well for me.
