Sharping A Splitter Blade, Other Blades

[rawhide1]

Howdy

I went to this website after seeing it posted elsewhere on this site. I think concerning a splitter. While I found a lot of good info. on sharping I couldn't find anything directly related to the size of the splitter blade. I contacted Brent the owner /author/sharping guy and he was kind enough to put some instruction on his site for the splitter blade. I haven't had the chance to build or use the jigs because I need to get a belt sander so I can put my primary bevel on the blade. While I've been getting my splitter blade fairly sharp by freehand sharping. I hope to take it to the next level by using a jig. If your interested take a look and see what you think maybe it will help someone get a sharper splitter blade. Anyway this is a super nice guy and will answer any questions you have on sharping anything. http://www3.telus.net/BrentBeach/Sharpen/other.html#leather
