Maintaining a sharp edge
When it comes to carving, having a sharp blade is key to achieving the desired results. Thankfully, with pre-sharpened tools that come straight from the factory, this part of the process has become much easier.
However, it's important to remember that maintenance is essential for keeping your blade in top condition and ensuring it lasts. Using a strop and sharpening compound is recommended for this task, and for those wondering about the correct angle to sharpen at, it's 15° - the same angle it's pre-sharpened at.
There are many different tools available to assist with sharpening, and with the right maintenance, your carving projects are sure to be a success.
