Holy Mr. Miyagi Batman! I spent too much time plane shopping and not enough time painting the fence! I can already see having dedicated marking knives for soft or hardwood knife walls.
Great video James, thanks. Being a grumpy old Vietnam veteran with some PTSD issues I use woodworking as therapy. Sharpening is right up there with making shavings in the therapeutic department. I spend a lot of time at both of them.
I’m not a vet, and I know it doesn’t really compare, but sometimes I have nightmares about my patients in the psychiatric hospital (I work on the violent male floor, so if there isn’t a threat on my life during the shift I didn’t really work). Usually it’s the night before I go back in after a few days off. After, I usually can’t sleep so I go downstairs and make shavings with my #6. It takes my mind off of it and eventually wears me out to the point I can sleep again
@@TheRagerboys I know 3 years ago but prayer sent for you and watermain48. I was a medical professional and feel your pain, but know someone feels it more.
After watching you for a while now I decided to take the plunge and actually splurged on a nice Damascus Marking Knife... now I just need to get the time off work to actually use it.
I really like that marking knife style. It looks great and it seems simple to sharpen. This videos really inspire me to continue learning more about woodworking. Thank you for your hard work!!
Fantastic! Thanks a lot for the tips, James!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Sometimes the biggest advancements are brought about by understanding the little bitty details. Thanks James ...... PS Really enjoy the corn humor !
I've said it a few places but there's a great line in the new traditional woodworker. "good enough is good enough" maybe I like it so much because I've said something similar for a long time.
With OCD, there is no "Good Enough". A metal worker friend of mine says I am seeking to be to exact with my woodwork.
@@thomasarussellsr determine what tolerances you can accept. E.g. +- 2-3 mm is more than enough for woodworking. It's in metal machining where tolerances can be +-10 thou (or less).
thanks showing that
Thank You James.
thank you
Perfect timing, was going to start on filing and diamond stone grinding an old (DIY) annealed (Lidl I think) chisel into a marking knife tomorrow and that bit on the rounded tip on your knife was useful, think I may just end up doing that.
Good video!
Super helpful! I have a suggestion for a video: bringing a router plane blade into square. I read through Paul Sellers’ article on it, but haven’t found any videos and I can’t seem to get it right. It’s been frustrating!
I have seen a few people talking about that. But I've never actually come across a router plane that is out of square. I guess if someone regularly sharpened the back side of the blade then it might come out of square with the soul of the outer plane. I would have to think about it.
great stuff, ur a real cutup
Whoa, all of the dad jokes 😂
Thank you for the info. You're one of the few woodworking "influencers" I enjoy following. Do you have any tips and/or tricks for sharpening the small blade of a cutting gauge? Not the wheel type but the wedged blade type.
I might have to do a video on that here soon. Got a few people asking for marking gauge sharpening.
Clean your hands with table salt, I find it works great. A bit of water added is all you need.
Does that also help locate every nick and scratch on your hands?
Many thanks for another interesting video. Please tell me if you ever need to clean the windex off you diamond plate. Thanks again.
I usually wipe it off but that was about it
@@WoodByWrightHowTo Many thanks.
Seeing as you're sharpening so much this week, how about marking wheels?
I have thought about doing a video om marking gauges. maybe I will. thanks for the idea.
Maybe a pizza cutter. Who knows? 🤔
Sorry, I'm hungry. 😬
@@MCsCreations I know all my local pizzarias could use lessons on it. I never get a pizza thats cut completely. The pieces are always stuck together at the crust end. I don't know if it is their cutters or their technique.
@@thomasarussellsr probably a bit of both?
Wow, two jokes in the first 30 seconds. Impressive👍🏼🤣
How bout "double-sided single bevel"? 🤔
Great message - marking knives are pointless !
Lol Right on.
I thought you'd say "This video is 'on the cutting edge'"
Honing that rounded tip in isn't nearly as hard as stropping it. Half of the time I end up cutting my strop with the curved tip. Not a big deal, it just messes with my OCD. :-) Keep up the good videos!
IKR? Maybe he's just tyring to sell more strops?
Stinky caught me lol. I would be interested in to why you find that Chris I haven't actually noticed any more damage one way or the other. I think I would actually lean slightly the other way because of having the sharp point make it far easier to dig in when you go back to the top of the strap.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo You know I'm just joking, right?
@@WoodByWrightHowTo The cutting the strop part is all on me and my technique. :-) I tend to overlift the back for the curved tip and dig the tip into the strop. I keep forgetting to pay attention.
Hey James, I caught an older video of yours on the Stanley 45 the other day, at the end you said "I could probably do a 3 or 4 hour long video on all the things the 45 can do." Any interest in doing one of your live streams on the 45? - A new 45 owner.
I actually have done a live on it, but it might be fun to do another one some time.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo I'll go find it, thanks!
This is ironic. I just finished converting an old, rusted, unknown, blunt knife into a sharp marking knife.
Sounds like a fun time.
Here is the most important tip from this video.... the tip is just not that important.
See what I did there? Buh-dum-tish!
Hahaha!

So, essentially, you are sharpening one tooth of a handsaw, but in larger scale?
Right on.
