Okay - I think the past couple of hours was the end of the sharpening on the knives - I did not remove all of the pits/scouring/etc. on all of the faces - I need to see how th FIL handles the knives on a lathe before I put a final-final edge on them - as they are at the moment I'd use them without fear of burning - I'm worried that he's been using bad edges for long enough that he's compensated his technique to poor tools - thus runs the chance of catching a sharp edge on his work because he's been digging rather than shaving the wood for a while now.
