Book Reviews of The Complete Guide to Sharpening
Book Review: Know what you want from this book!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I thought I wanted a review of sharpening techniques for a variety of different tools and blades, so that I would have a solid basis to at least put a decent edge on almost anything. This book was too detailed for me, and much of the information is simple not useful for me. After several nights of reading, I got a comprehensive course on sharpening theory, along with how to set up a sharpening shop.
What it turns out that I wanted was some devices to put an edge on most of my tools and knives. I purchased a Lansky set'Lansky'' Sharpening System Kit and am very pleased with it. This book simply had more information than I wanted. I think it is a great book, just TMI.
