Sharpening

These are all tools that I use or suggest. I have eather used them enough to approve of them for the price, or I trust enough valued sources that use them. I do not always suggest the “best on the market”, but I try to look for the best bang for the buck. some pages will list the “best” in my book and have a second version with the best for the price. If you are looking for recommendations for “the best tool” feel free to send me a message and I can suggest others that might be better for you personally. There is no best tool for everyone. Also, most but not all, of the links on my site are affiliates. Using these links may help out wood by wright. If any links are not working please let me know. Thanks for the support!

Horse Butt Strop and/or Compound

This is the strop and compound that I make and use.

Natural Slip Stone

They are offered in several “grits” make quick work of those oddly shaped carving gouges.

Natural Wet Stone

One of the best prices on a natural wet stone. With two sides this will treat you well for years to come.

If you are having trouble free handing sharpening this will help you along.
