Haha, it’s slightly off topic. I’m still thinking about fixing my workbench first. I’m using the cheap diamond stone set from Amazon. They work fine for me. I tried water stone, but it’s really slow on sharpening the blades for me. I got a nice diamond stone recently, which I haven’t tried it yet. I definitely recommend diamond stones. I mostly use a honing guide for the blade angle. But Paul Sellers’s free hand method works really fast. If you’re just starting out, I recommend the following I purchased: (Hope they are not too overwhelming) Jewboer 4 Pieces Diamond... www.amazon.com/dp/B0BGDBYB8L?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Saker Honing Guide Tool Upgraded... www.amazon.com/dp/B0CB5P6SK1?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share BeaverCraft Stropping Leather... www.amazon.com/dp/B07941KX8R?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Smith's HON1-4oz Honing Solution,... www.amazon.com/dp/B0013AXUOY?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
@@SquareTailWood holy moly, thank you for the detailed reply and the links! I need to give diamond stones a try. The sandpaper method gets expensive and it doesn't seem like it sharpens as much as I'd like.
