So in short: I definitely have to buy a 15000 grid japanese whetstone instead of the 10000 one if I want to occasionally cut sticks for bushcrafting, yes?

Great video! Very enjoyable. Apparently Amazon has sold out of velvet stropping handkerchiefs since you posted this.

Saw the 50 second duration. Immediately knew this was going to be good.

All I have to say is I lost it at the beginning 🤣 🤣 🤣. Nothing like that scandi grind

Hi Ben, I use a DMT coarse bench stone to re-profile a damage edge, then work up to a finer grit, then strop, works well if you can’t afford a wheel or fancy machines

I'm watching Mr Ben...almost unsure how to react, know I enjoyed this nonetheless however....🍁

Here's Johnny !

I think i got it.

Please, don't chip the porcelain of your sink Ben, I'd feel bad! I just spruced up the edges on my Fiskars 8lb maul, X25 and X27. I bought a Nicholson Axe bastard file a few years back. I really like it. I bought a steel comb rasp to clean the filings from it to. Works really well.

You are a brute Ben! 😁

My hy10 1.2 just broke within the first 30 min of use. Half of the edge just broke, 1,5 cm deep. Fck me xD 10 hrs of work in it. Still waiting for response from them. Had a 20 degree edge.

Unlucky. I made sure to smash the shit out of mine before even starting to take a file to it 😅
