It is. Been posted before. Still fun to post.

Great cats. Cute, for sure. Consistent quality from one to another. Nice shading on the backgrounds, too.

Beautiful hairpins. They look real. Outstanding work.

Nice sheath, BTW.

Great practice piece. Nothing gets skills honed more than good old practice.

Mighty fine idea. Chuck, those you turned down look outstanding. Good thinking, thanks for the tip(s).

Maybe you could fashion a leather belt for it if the inside of an abrasive belt doesn't work. Just make a long strip of 3-4 oz leather and glue it to an old abrasive belt.

LOL, so true. Sometimes a straight run is harder than a curved one.

Looks good finished. Thumbs-up!

It looks like it would work great on straight cuts. Curves might be a different story but I can see the use for such a cutter

Nice Celtic design work. Looks mighty good.

Outstanding! That hammer now starts life anew. That's some beautiful work.

Mablung is right. I could shave with any of mine. I strop before using, every couple cuts during and after before putting it away.

I can't say any specific tools improved my working. That said, Any good quality tool does make your work better. Don't get cheap ones, you'll just wind up replacing them in the long run.
