Wow! Looked like a hiding to nothing for a while there! I'd have thrown that chisel out if it was one of mine! As soon as they bend they're done, unless you use it for something like brickwork. Little tip for sharpening - use a Sharpie and colour the bevel of the chisel in, that way you can see what's been ground off and what isn't... Nice instructional, though - thanks for the hard work. 🙂 Question for you - when you're sharpening the 30° micro, do you need to adjust the position if you're removing chips and dints in the tip? Some of those chips looked about 1mm deep, so once removed, should the guide be adjusted and pulled back 1mm?
Yeah it wasnt actually one of my chisels i got it off a freind it was all banged up and i thought it might be interesting to gove it a go. I would say if you have and chips or dings like the one in the video, it's best to grind the 25 degree until there all gone then add your 30 degree micro bevel on a perfect surface. I probably rushed it a bit at the end so i dont think i got them all out , but it was really just for fun . Also thanks for the tip and thank you for watching, hope it was some help.

@@mbtoolreviews - Certainly does help. I chose your video mainly based on the Amazon items I've been looking at, those diamond stones in among them.
