My name is Jonas and I'm a part time self taught woodworker. Used to be full time, which I was for three years.
I'm making hand carved wooden spoons, and teaching classes. My main customers are michelin- and gourmet restaurants, in Denmark, Scandinavia and around the world.
I work as an ambassador for Tormek Sharpening.
All my crafts are unique and handmade to the smallest detail, from fresh and seasoned wood into a usable product.
Bringing back the Scandinavian traditional folk art, cultural heritage and 'slöjd' to the future.
beautiful work. you make it look so easy. i'd clamp the piece of wood to the desk cause i'd probably cut my fingers off using that tool you used in the beginning.
Hello 🙂 This one is 6-7 years old I think, so I’m not sure it’s possible to find. But contact MoraKniv and ask.. they might have something in stock. They are pretty nice.
Hello Raymond Thanks for the question. Well, I think I decided to set the angle at 22 degrees (2 x 14, if I remember correctly), and from that proceeded. And next, you don’t have to strop after using the Japanese stone, as it is way more fine than the honing paste. Among a few things I did wrong in this video years ago, I used way too much much time on sharpening it, and I now know that when sharpening with a Tormek, you have to do the following: 5-10 continuous passes each on each side, then followed by 5-10 strokes one side at the time (switching side every single pass), and so you keep minimising the burr until it brakes off leaving a super razor sharp edge. Does that make sense?
Bonjour et merci de cette vidéo instructive et très utile. Ôter le biseau est assez convaincant. Les copeaux sont plus grands et en effet plus lisses. Pourquoi alors Mora vend-il des couteaux croche biseauté, ainsi que les couteaux droits de sculpture biseautés ? Il est assez compliqué d’affûter un couteau croche à la pierre. Votre technique paraît préférable. Merci pour vos retours et pour le partage. Michèle
I am just getting into making knives, my Dad always used to use a wet stone hence I have bought one, however what was the device you used to measure the angle?
Que buen afilador de cuchillos, la piedra pasa por el agua y asi, no se calienta el cuchillo, y la piedra no sufre desgaste por el agua, que buena herramienta me gustaría tener uno de esos afiladores..!! Muy buen tip para sacar filo..!! Excelente video..!!
