If you're a DIY (do it yourself) person like me, this is a great project! I wish I would have made this years ago to keep my knifes, hatchet, axe, etc all sharp!
I used scrap MDF and bought the the other supplies, links below.
Beeswax amzn.to/3Zv6aKA
White Polishing Compound (aka Jeweler's Rouge) amzn.to/3Y4nEMJ
Silicone Carbide Grit amzn.to/3EJKnXE
Bench Grinder amzn.to/41CHdz0
Here's a the original Razor Sharp Edge Sharpener via amazon. amzn.to/3mv2VPu
Exact label is Razor Sharp Edgemaking System 8 Inch Deluxe Blade Sharpening Kit | For 6 Inch Bench Grinder | Made in the USA
