This made an instant difference in my chisels! When I got my stitches today the Dr. commented on how clean a cut I had. I can’t wait to use them in a day or two again!
LOL I hope you're okay
Hah, great joke ( I hope )
Very funny!!!!
lol I hope ur ok though.
What a manly way to test them. 🤣
Stumpy Nubs may not be the flashiest RUclips woodworker, but he's by far the most valuable. The amount of education and insight I gain from his videos surpasses any other YT channel, even my favorite ones.
I do like this chap: plain, uncluttered advice of real value.
I'm just getting started and the amount and quality of content you produced is astounding. I'm certain that you have a very meaningful impact on woodworking worldwide. Thank you so much.
10 times better explenation than anything else i found so far. Thank you!
It’s very good of you to credit David Charlesworth with this, given that he invented it. I’ve been on all his courses and using his techniques means that sharpening becomes a pleasurable and satisfying experience that is part of the task rather than a chore which has to be got through. I remember his tool tuning course in 2005 which was a revelation; lifts you from clueless to sharpening expert in one week. Once you get your rhythm, the blade is sharpened whilst the tea is brewing. I like the fact that you give logical reasons why - with great little drawings - one should sharpen both sides of all blades.
Thanks, Stumpy. It's always nice to learn the basics in such a way that you get the reasons why, so you can 'think with the tools'. Thanks for going the extra mile to explaining it exactly in this fashion!
Excellent video, thank you.
This answered a lot of questions for me and solved some issues I was having.
I almost didn't watch this because... I know this subject - It's pretty basic. But it's so well done that it IS worth watching - it pulls everything together and makes it very clear. So... Great job. You are a fine communicator Stumpy Nubs.
Wow. I am so impressed at your teaching - clear, conversational, and motivated (and motivating). Subscribed immediately. Thank you.
3:52 "...and you know how hard it is to get rid of a belly" - great line :D
I've seen a lot of videos on sharpening chisels, this was the most informative. Thank you.
Relatively new subscriber and love the common sense you put in the videos. Thanks for sharing. Great channel.
Excellent explanations! I always knew the backs needed to be flat, but have some unused tools, like the least used sizes of chisels, because I never had the time to flatten the backs. Your explanation of the ruler trick was great! I finally understand it and may try it on some planes that I've been meaning to refurbish.
This was the most informative and comprehensive tutorial I've come across. You gave me a LOT of good information and I REALLY appreciate it!
So thank you!!
Thank you for this video. Now I know what to look for when I am sharpening my tools. Very informative and easy to understand:)
"If you never pay attention to the back of your tool, you're only doing half the job" words to live by brother...
Hi stumpy I love your videos iv just finished my level 3 bench joinery at collige I think your videos are helpful and full of information thank you for teaching me your technics 👍🏻keep it up
Thanks James. Makes a whole bunch of sense. Great diagrams for explaining what your saying
Really excellent explanation of something I had never thought of. I use a diamond "stone" nowadays, because fed up with ordinary stones getting rounded, and only flatten the last two inces of a chisel - but I had never heard of the convex and concave problem. Brilliant, thanks.
Fantastically clear!!! Easy to understand.
Awesome video James! Thanks for the great explanation.
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. Great explanation.
Thanks James...this is a very useful instructive video-it is appreciated.
Excellent presentation style ! The drawings really help your explanations, and how what you are talking about. Your set is something to look at also.
Gosh... I wish I was your apprentice..
Another great, perfectly executed video, thank you for the exceptional tutorial.
Brilliant. Uncluttered and valuable advice to all chisel users.
I am an amateur lapidary. I wonder if a "flat lap" would be of any use to sharpen carpentry tools? They are simply a spinning disk which may be coated or "sintered" diamond of any grit, or an un-coated disk may be faced with wet-or-dry sandpaper. The laps are absolutely flat (especially so since they will be spinning.) Since the motor operates on DC current, their speed may be adjusted. They have a set-up which allows water to be dripped as they spin. And they can flatten an abrasive block too - the diamond is ever-so-much harder than it is (actually flattening sharpening stones also "dresses" the lap, since more of the diamond is exposed.)
You have such a nice speaking voice! I like the way you explain yourself too.
Thanks, Stumpy! I learned a few things, good stuff.
Well, my day's work has just begun. I'm off to the workshop to flatten 10 chisels and three plane blades that can then be sharpened properly. This has been an eye-opener for me. Excellent, detailed explanation of the finer points of sharpening. Thanks Stumpy.
Just solid unquestionable woodworking truths. Thanks for sharing. And yes, the pleasure it's all mine.
Great to see you are doing the 'figure of eight ' sharpening technique. many you tubers seem to use the simple
back and forward technique inadvertently literally grinding grooves into their blades
Excellent and informative video. Just what i need to cure the frustrations i have been experiencing with my chisels. Many thanks.
Nice video. And I'll have you know, you did a brilliant job of tricking me into learning something.
This is excellent information. Thank you kindly for posting !!
What a great channel. Thanks so much for these PRICELESS videos!
Keep them tips, tricks and techniques videos coming, Stumpy - learn from pretty much each one - thanks!
Im a professional sharpener and this guy is the real deal! Fantastic production, pace, and illustrations. A+++
Fantastic video and explanations James, thanks for the lesson.
I've been shaving with a beard knife and now I have a bread knife. You are my favorite artist!
Too funny James
me too

Thank you for posting Mr Nubs.
Such a great explanation!
Thanks David!
Great lesson-You are the BEST!
This is really useful information! I didn't know most of this!
this video is FANTASTIC. all information no over explaining.
Always great, clear and concise information. Thanks.
Best yet video. I appreciate that you mentioned David Charlesworth. I've read his work and hold him in high regard concerning planes and sharpening. Cannot believe he is not better known.
Stumpy.... another good video - seems I learn most of my fundamentals from you. Others show how to do something, but I like the way you take the time to explain why you do something! Thanks! I am look forward to seeing your subscriptions grow to 1,000,000 plus in 2019.
Times passes but metal and wood persist. I go back to your videos as l learn, and you definitely make a difference.Thank you
Simple to understand, thanks mate, gives me something to work with.
That was easy understandable and very useful. Thanks for sharing!
This is the 1st video of yours I've watched and I find your presentation excellent, so much so I've subbed your channel, despite my not being a woodworker. I appreciate things well done (just not my steaks) : )
me too!
Great info as usual James, It's a one off on buying chisels and plane blades. I lap approx 30mm of cutting edge, and then it's good to go forever (most of the time). It does not take that much effort and not having to think about when you used the ruler trick last.
great vid - lovely style! Thanks.
Great tips Stumpy. One you missed was one I got from Paul Sellers! If you have a cheap chisel with a belly on the back, (from end to end rather than across the width) it is possible to put the tool onto a couple of pieces of wood then use a hammer or something to straighten out the blade of the chisel prior to flattening / polishing the back.
Great video. This person is one excellent presenter, best I've seen in ages. Well done, and thank you for the instruction.
I totally agree !!!
Thanks a million for the video... You have been extremely helpful...
Been looking for a good site on how to sharpen my knives and chisel and plans. Great job on explaining how to do it right.
Try Paul Sellers.
Your delivery on your videos is terrific. One man show? I am very impressed. You've two big skills, woodworking and videography. 3 if we include the artisic drawings.
Great video just subscribed.
Another great video by the master, thanks!
Really helpful. Thank you!
Thanks James, this was just as good this time as it was the first time I watched it.
i'm a bookbinder, and there is a knife I use for skiving leather that has to be SUPER sharp to shave the edge of leather down to paper-thinness for wrapping round the edge of cover boards. This sharpening technique is one of the first things i was taught as a bookbinder--first you get the bevel sharp, smooth, at the right angle, and mirror-polished. THEN you sharpen and polish the back of the skiving knife.
Most skiving knives come from the manufacturer needing a LOT of work--mst of mine have taken several hours of hand-honing on several progressive grits of diamond stones and strops to get them "right". And then every few weeks, I strop and polish them to maintain the edge.
it only makes sense that this method would also be appropriate with wood tools too. Great video!
Great to see the dedication to hand tools. I am a Toolmaker. Modern /plastics molds. Efficient machine grinding works better with the subject metal in its hardened state.
Those drawings really help. I understood the concept but the drawings really helped me picture it.
Brilliant, mate. On the rare occasion I want a back bevel, I use 3-4 turns of electrical tape (start and end on the bottom).
More usually it's a bit of 2000 Wet/Dry taped to a piece of flat glass - (stick-on rubber feet on the bottom). (tape works there too and saves my rulers :)
Man, that's an impressive array of vintage hand tools behind you! The plane collection in particular, is mind-blowing. Subscribing.
Excellent video. I learnt new, useful stuff!
Awesome. Learned this from a German woodworker who told me his first year in the shop as an apprentice was to learn how to sharpen chisels a saws and scrapers etc.
Why water stones need to be true prior to use.
Very very nice.
I learnt something new today. Thank you.
thank you, another great talk and demo
You have so much good knowledge ! Thank you again!
Good video! Many wood workers are taught to never sharpen the back of the chisel. That is good advice for novices, and you can ruin a chisel by sharpening it improperly. But as with all tools, if you know what you are doing then you can fix almost any mistake.
This is an excellent informative video, thanks.
If there is a belly on a plane iron you can give it a tap with a plastic mallet and it will straighten it out a fair bit. I got that tip from one of Paul Seller's videos and tested it myself and it really does work.
Nice video...great info...thanks!
Super clear and concise! Thank you!
thanks for sharing this info!!! and this STAFF behind you :)
Really informative . Excellent presentation.
Thank you great video. So well explained.
I want to than you for this video. No one has explained the hollow on the back as in detail like you. This is amazing, thank you again.
A tool will never be sharper than its back. If it’s microscopically pitted or contoured , it’s never going to work well. So many guys I’ve worked with with never understood this simple concept. My chisels used to get a freshen up on the back before the bevel : and this usually just required a quick wipe on a fine hone and finishing on a leather strop . Works with everything from 1/8” paring chisels to 4” Shipwrights slicks.
Great video. Subscribed.
I never understood this until watching this, so simple. It's always the case, simple when you know how. But, it's a shame there are so many fellas out their giving their own respective but entirely false opinions 😡

A fascinating video. Very informative.
You made some great points. Thanks.
Thanks. This was really interesting. I have never used the ruler trick but now I must test it. I’ve always been using old fashioned stones like my dad who was a carpenter. The diamonds I have had have been too thin and haven’t worked well. I think that your diamond stone must be really expensive but I have so many different chisels and other cuting tools so perhaps I should invest one.
Great info! I had No idea.
Great vid, as always from SN- thank you. I thought the drawings were extremely effective in visualizing what you were talking about.
Very excellent video.. Thank you!!
Great information, Thanks for sharing.
As the son of a plane maker, former sharpening tutor and a cabinet maker, I could not agree with you more.
I used to spend up to a day per blade lapping the backs of the blades by hand for my father's small plane making business.
There is nothing more important that a properly flat, straight and square edge. It lays the foundations for properly flat, straight and square workmanship.
Thank you for the video.
Great video James. This is all very sound sharpening advice that clearly comes from someone who has a lot of experience.
And the drawings really help to illustrate the concepts you are talking about.
thanks for the video. do you have an order preference when sharpening? I have typically done bevel - back - bevel - back
Great video the how and why ,very clear .great job
As a musical instrument maker, I can only agree. Well explained.
Cheers from Vienna, Scott
Excellent knowledge source and presentation.
This is a great video it explains things really good. Thank You
I'm very new to woodworking, and I'm becoming more and more demotivated spending so much time just trying to flatten the back of my very cheap chisel, even if I know I'll just do it once in my lifetime for every chisel. Knowing that it's the chisel's fault and not mine, really makes me wanna go back to my woodworking immediately. Thank you for this video, it was extremely informative :>
great information. Thanks for sharing.
This video is great! Nice job.
Your video is excellent, sir. The science is so thoroughly explained and drawn easy to understand. I want to go back to high school physics and have you draw every diagram for me.
