I wondered why even after sharpening a V chisel I still had trouble getting it to dig into soft wood. Your explanation makes perfect sense. Tks. I've been using a triangle of corse to fine stones that I got in Mountain View Arkansas 25 years ago. They have been a pleasure to have.

Thank you for sharing such a useful skill. I just got a group of small carving chisels and wanted to try my hand at carving. Out of the seven there were two gouges that I could control. Next project is to use what I've learned here and from your gouge sharpening video and get my tools ready to start. I have heard great things about your carving school and this video backs up the praise.

This video is awesome. The V tool is always the hardest one for me to sharpen. You explaination of treating it as three seperate chisels is outstanding. Getting the inside to a true "V" is impossible and this is the o e tool in my collection that always seems the hardest to xontrol and get a good clean cut. All my other tools can shave hardwood endgrain like butter. I will definitely try your "three chisel" method. I'm sure this will solve my final sharpening struggle. Thank you so much. The inside curve and outside angle makes so much geometerical sense as to why it seems to drag when trying to push it through the wood. Another good example, now that I think of it, would be looking at the end of a piece of angle iron how the inside is curved vs the outside being angled. the flat spot at the tip would be like trying to push a triangular dowel through the grain of your work piece. Best, most helpful explaination I've found yet on the Tube of You (KZfaq). Thank you doesn't say enough.

Thank you very much! That is by far the hardest chisel for me to sharpen. If you dont mind can ask how high your bench measures ? Ive been carving on my bench and find that my back starts ache after an hour or so ,so i built a raised carving stand but i find that i dont have as much control. Thanks for your help in advance.JOE ps love all your videos

And yet, another video says you MUST round the back of chisels to cut wood well. And another video says you must use the smooth side of leather and never the rough. Why isnt there agreement among woodworkers as to basics? This is extremely confusing to newcomers.
