Square Carving Chisels
The Open Seat is Used
The min length of blade for this jig is approx 100 mm (4") at 25° edge angle. For shorter
blades, down to 75 mm (3"), you use the SVS-38 jig (page 68).
Lock the seat with the bottom
screw (6) in the straight position
(0°). The seat should touch the
stop (7).
Mount the chisel protruding (P)
min 100 mm (4"). Lock with the
top screw (5).
Set the edge angle by adjusting
the Universal Support. When
replicating an existing angle,
use the Marker Method.
Sharpen the first side. Press with your thumb close to the edge
for best control. Lift the tool and then move it sideways so that
the wheel wears equally. When a burr has developed on the entire
edge, turn the jig around and sharpen the other side.
Ensure that the entire flange
of the jig is in contact with the
Universal Support.
Honing. Keep the tool in the jig and move to the leather honing wheel. Set the Universal Support
so that the honing angle is the same as the grinding angle. Use the Marker Method. Hone away the
burr and polish the bevels to a mirror finish.
