Nice knowing your #50 arrived safely and great seeing loads of practise going on Jon. 🙂
Here’s a couple of handy tips
Sharpening with a single bevel at 35 deg tends to be the (Manufacturer’s) recommended angle, plus provides a more resilient edge for when you hit stubborn timber. 😉
Select stock carefully for grain orientation and knots. Â Knot free, straight grained timber tends to produce the best results.
