It's nice, but it also looks like he isn't following all the lines, if so, he needs to explain how to get to this point for novice carvers. You can't do unwritten rules for beginners - unless you explain. I'm sorry that doesn't work.
Bonjour Daniel, vous expliquez bien l’équilibrage du support par rapport à la lame du couteau. Merci pour cette vidéo instructive et pour le partage, Michèle
I liked the wind sound in the background. I could just imagine you sitting in the mountains with your trusty native american princess skillfully skinning a beaver.
Beautiful...I LOVE the sound of a truly sharp blade as it slices effortlessly through the wood...Music to my ears, soothing for my soul,,,Thank you for sharing your talent!
Hi. Sorry, I gave this a thumbs down as you didn't explain what you were doing. Why do you need to sharpen and new blade? What were the terms you used like "abrade the sides"? What grit of stone, and what type of stones are you using etc.? By the way, I have seen other videos of yours that were very useful.
You mean the pencil lines? Just erase and give a very very light sanding with fresh 220 sandpaper. Very light, with the paper wrapped around a scrap block.
I buy sharpening film from Tool For Working Wood in NYC, but it’s sold by several retailer: Lee Valley, Wooodcraft, Rockler, and probably many smaller independent sellers. Grits I use in microns: 40, 15, 5 & 1
Beautiful work! What kind of wood is this? What kind of knife is this? What are you using to sharpen the knife? And what are you using to smoothen the wood after carving? And what kind of wax do you recommend on?
