[QUOTE="Ahall, post: 4313300, member: 49426"] All sharpening systems (except burnishing scrapers) use the same basic principle. If you want a keener edge, go to a finer grit. Powered systems let you remove material faster, and some have fixtures help with the angle. For my money stones are fine. My water stones go to #6000, which is almost a mirror finish. My brother goes into the range of diamond lapping compound for polishing jewelry, on chisels. You can use the blades for mirrors, and they will quite literally split hairs. His wood inlay work is quite impressive, and the super sharp edge eliminates any chipping and tear out. With a little time and practice anyone can achieve remarkable results. [/QUOTE]
