Go Up Go Down

Thanks for the tips,
    My wife has me building kitchen cabinets, tables and the like here on the base wood shop.  She's a perfectionist about the sanding and laquer.  I'm a car guy and enjoy bodywork.  So I was thinking about the fine/wet sandpaper to screw around on some of these blades I have.  It's hard to belive that the Japanese craftsmen take years to become proficient in polishing.  Doesn't seem like it would take much more that a class at a Community College.

if the blade is in good condition not rusty or pitted do not sand on it if there is a nice temper line on it you will lose the temper line.
once its gone you will have a hard time trying to get it back.
they make a polishing kit you can get pretty cheap on eBay it comes with a powder polish and oil which is a mixture of clove and Camilla it really preserves the blade well.
nice talking with ya have fun with the cabinets
