Cutting action compresses End grain with a blade at too fibres before they fail. steep an angle or dull blade. A sharp blade gives a The force compresses the fibres smoother surface. until they are torn rather than cut.

  • Grindstone/Tormek
  • Need to ensure that

the metal is not over- heated (water-cooled)

  • Once the primary

bevel has been formed, it needs honing.

  • Microbevel (Secondary bevel) has certain

advantages

  • Microbevel a few degrees larger than main

bevel

  • They add strength to the cutting edge & require

less time and effort to hone

  • Plane blades &

chisels need a flat & polished back

  • A sharp cutting

edge is the junction
