Restore an Old Chisel Using Only Sandpaper

[@smithseth33]

I might drop a few tools off for your next video, nice work!

[@RLLWoodworks]

Thanks, come on by!

[@COEYRN]

What tools are you going to drop off. Sorry nosey.

[@jsbrous1]

Been thinking about repairing my Chisels and I may even try to restore some of my Grandfather’s old hand planes. I’ve watched a lot of videos on this but yours was easier to understand. Most of them go into details that are way beyond my ability!

[@RLLWoodworks]

Thanks for that! Yeah to me, this is one of those things that one could go extreme to get the best possible results. Or, go about 50% and still get really good results. For my needs right now, I don't need the worlds sharpest chisel so this method has been great.

[@bretlangefeld5095]

Great tip! Can’t believe how well those turned out. Like new...

[@mpart_woodlathe-stuff]

We all need our sharpie tools😁 So now keeping them sharp won't take near as long. Keep up the good work👍 Stay safe. -Mike

[@RLLWoodworks]

Thank you so much Mike!

[@COEYRN]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For posting this video. I was going to attempt using my Dremel to sharpen my chisels, but was hesitant due to flying metal pieces. So was searching for a video that skipped potential eye damage and could be done quickly. This not only worked with no guide, like the one you are using. I'm now confident I can buy a guide, and not waste my money. No fuss no muss. Even had spray glue. Cool thanks Again 😊

Dude that’s awesome to hear!! So glad it helped!

[@COEYRN]

@@RLLWoodworks Helping right now actually. Getting through this project way faster then yesterday.

[@ared18t]

Get 80 grit psa roll make a wood block to insert the blade into and sand with big ol 4 foot strokes that should make things way faster.

[@RLLWoodworks]

😂 thanks for the tip!

[@RLLWoodworks]

Hi there! Thanks so much! It’s called the Varitas honing guide and you can buy it online or in store at Woodcraft. 👍🏻

[@RLLWoodworks]

[@RhinoWorks]

use the same honing guide. very happy with it! cool video, cheers! :-)

[@RLLWoodworks]

Thanks for watching! Great purchase.

[@harrisongray9172]

Wow they turned out awesome. Who would’ve thought. 👀

[@RLLWoodworks]

Thank you!! It’s funny I was just using this chisel and thought it was due for a tune up. Got several good months out of it using this method.

[@harrisongray9172]

@@RLLWoodworks that’s brilliant. I started my new job a few weeks ago as a carpenter/door fitter and my chisel set is due a nice sharpen so was looking around. And found your video. I wouldn’t have thought for a second sand paper would’ve been durable enough to actually provide some good results. :)

[@RLLWoodworks]

That’s awesome man!! I’ve been really happy with this method so far. Good luck with the new gig!

[@crossedpolars]

Great video. Might invest in a honing guide

[@mangakamotlomelo1532]

[@RLLWoodworks]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@jakubthedanger8158]

50 bucks for this little piece of crap? Sounds like you got ripped off! And I hate to see when somebody is not taking care of his chisels!

[@jakubthedanger8158]

yeah and there should be some grit between the 220 and 1000

[@abdullahali5039]

Thank you very much for your response

[@RLLWoodworks]

You’re very welcome!

[@o.g.bwoodwork]
