Getting started in sharpening the blades of my hand tools I have put off for ages. That was because I only had chisels and did all sorts of horrible things like use a Dremel to sharpen them occasionally. Now I have invested in water stones and the Veritas Mark 2 Honing Guide as recently, I got my first hand planes and needed to get serious about sharpening plane irons. So I took a leaf from Paul @TheWoodKnight 's playbook and basically copied his setup as it was the best sharpening system for beginners I have seen. Simple, quick and easy with repeatable results and only a little mess.

This is not a video on HOW to sharpen, I am only learning to sharpen. This is a video on WHY I selected the tools I did to get the job done and how I intend to use them. However I also take a quick look at the Veritas Honing Guide and review my first impressions of it and Japanese water stones.
