  3. Christopher Claudio Skierka on March 16, 2022 at 5:28 pm

    Hi there great video. I am about to buy some water stones to sharpen my block stanley no 4 plane. What stone grades did you say use for this purpose? Thank you in advance, Chris



  4. Flounder VFW on March 16, 2022 at 5:31 pm

    90-Seconds ….. in 14 minutes. Is this a woodworking thing?



  5. henry arrington on March 16, 2022 at 5:31 pm

    Just the tip. Lol. Sorry I’ll show myself to the door.



  6. Gerry GOLDER on March 16, 2022 at 5:31 pm

    Please tell me the brand of the wet stone . Having trouble finding a similar one here in Australia. Great tutorial.



  7. 1joshjosh1 on March 16, 2022 at 5:32 pm

    I just wore out the end of my skin on my pointer finger but the results Kick-Ass



  8. Mike Good on March 16, 2022 at 5:32 pm

    Finally got scary sharp thanks to this video – BTW, you link for the polishing compound is the same as the link for the stones.



  9. Christopher Souza on March 16, 2022 at 5:34 pm

    Jon you are such an enjoyable person to watch/listen to……thanks for always sharing



  10. Cheryl Martin on March 16, 2022 at 5:34 pm

    Whats the strawp for? Or does



  11. Christopher Souza on March 16, 2022 at 5:34 pm

    Historically "just the tip" has not worked out well for me……hence my 3 kids!



  12. Kevin Reynolds on March 16, 2022 at 5:36 pm

    Just the tip



  13. Luka Peklenk on March 16, 2022 at 5:37 pm

    Hi!
    I really like your videos, because your tips are really simple.
    Also I like that your videos are 4k quality, so that we can really see all the details and thats very important for me.
    Cheers from Slovenija.



  14. Be Breezy1986 on March 16, 2022 at 5:37 pm

    So just the tip? 😄😄



  15. jay kimble on March 16, 2022 at 5:38 pm

    That last step doing the back; could stropping take care of that burr the same way?



  16. Alan Peach on March 16, 2022 at 5:39 pm

    7:59 you can literally see your plane blade is only touching the stone in two spots – 90 seconds my ***



  17. Keith Wiley on March 16, 2022 at 5:39 pm

    I Got .25 through this XXAP YOURE FULL OF yes you guest it



  18. John Jingleheimerschmidt on March 16, 2022 at 5:47 pm

    14 minutes cannot be filmed in 5 or 6 minutes to the best of my knowledge.



  19. GFG on March 16, 2022 at 5:49 pm

    14 minutes to explain a 90 second sharpening process?



  20. Jay e on March 16, 2022 at 5:50 pm

    I use diamond stones and get just as sharp in Les time. Water stones are to much work.



  21. johhann100 on March 16, 2022 at 5:51 pm

    Bullshiting



  22. Mohtadi on March 16, 2022 at 5:56 pm

    Thank you, I appreciate your valuable information



  23. Robert Vaurasi on March 16, 2022 at 5:57 pm

    You sound like Jimmy Kimmel…



  24. Op hammerdin on March 16, 2022 at 5:57 pm

    Is this for minor repair because my blades need to at least start at 220 grit due to chips in the steal. Usually this is from me planning only two sides of a board. Watching everyone makes me feel I need better blades.



  25. Josh Harroun on March 16, 2022 at 5:59 pm

    Holy cow am I grateful I can freehand sharpen



  26. DaVid on March 16, 2022 at 5:59 pm

    This works, sharpened 6 planes yesterday, thank you.



  27. Keith Chamberlain on March 16, 2022 at 6:01 pm

    Having mastered this, I no longer need to shave. I just plane my face….



  28. Silverback’s World . on March 16, 2022 at 6:01 pm

    Thanks



  29. David Andersson on March 16, 2022 at 6:02 pm

    That upside down writing just earned you a subscriber! Thank you sir!



  30. Amputee Woodworks on March 16, 2022 at 6:02 pm

    Best sharping video I’ve seen on YouTube hands down



  31. Ariel Ruiz on March 16, 2022 at 6:03 pm

    Takes him one minute to sharpen blade.

    Yeah its gonna take me at least an hour 😂😂😂



  32. markpatrickjohnston on March 16, 2022 at 6:03 pm

    I recently cut my thumb when sharpening my plane. This guy keeps touching the blade and it’s giving me anxiety! Haha. Anyways, great video



  33. Ton Wanten on March 16, 2022 at 6:03 pm

    Thank you



  34. Robert Jacoby on March 16, 2022 at 6:03 pm

    GREAT video as always…any chance you might be able to update links? A few items not available anymore, and the polishing compound link is actually the same link as the whetstones. Found this link for stones…what do you think? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CXQ2SLS/ref=crt_ewc_img_srh_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1QDEGJ5V9A7U5



  35. Cunningham1420 on March 16, 2022 at 6:05 pm

    Great video. I’m restoring a 1920s Stanley #3 and this def just answered alot of questions I had about sharpening and how it works



  36. Fred Parsons on March 16, 2022 at 6:06 pm

    Excellent video Jonathan. I was wondering how sharp the blade would be before the strop? Does the strop really give the edge the best sharpness?



  37. Luis Diaz on March 16, 2022 at 6:07 pm

    First time woodworker, and got a great result from this method!



  38. How I Do Things DIY on March 16, 2022 at 6:09 pm

    Can you just come to my house and sharpen my planes and chisels?



  39. Jon Handel on March 16, 2022 at 6:12 pm

    Is it just me, or did anyone else twitch and bristle every time he gestures with his hands within inches of a razor sharp blade?

  44. George Robartes on March 16, 2022 at 6:17 pm

    Just the tip………….



  45. colonialclive on March 16, 2022 at 6:21 pm

    A 14 minute video for a 90 second feature? And not free handing!



  46. Nouk Hollands on March 16, 2022 at 6:22 pm

    I just went by my grandpa and needed a hand plane, but i didnt know he had such a nice stanley one, but i dont have any wayer or diamond stones



  47. Peter August on March 16, 2022 at 6:22 pm

    For me as a metal person it is very interesting to see these planes. Honestly I have never seen a "standard" low angle plane" before. I did not even know they existed. I actually never held a plane made from steel in my hands. It really seems as if german carpentership is somewhat behind in that field. All I am used to is those nasty wooden planes that no one expect a zen master can set up right.



  48. Andrew Hall on March 16, 2022 at 6:22 pm

    When you sharpen the chisel blade with your circular saw, should your wife throw the chisel blade at the saw or just jab the blade in a fast stabbing motion?

    Also what’s the number for the emergency room.



  49. Jason Carlin on March 16, 2022 at 6:23 pm

    My diamond stones only go up to 1200 grit. Is that fine enough? I haven’t had much luck finding finer stones…
