I don’t know if I’m doing this right or what. I decided to use a chisel that I bought 40 years ago as my first sharpening with my General Tools Sharpening guide. I have tried sharpening the chisel many times over the years with a grinding wheel and I’ve probably screwed it up, but I’ve been working on this for hours using 100 grit sand paper and the General Sharpening guide without much success.
I have a bevel on the top side from a mistake many years ago and I don’t know if I’m ever going to remove enough metal to get rid of the bevel on back.
Is this as a fast as it goes? I have 7 more chisels to go and I don’t have time for this.
