    I'm sure many have seen this video and reference it often. When ever I am struggling with an edge or simply want to get back to the basics, this is my gold standard. The emphasis on pressure and even strokes inspires.

    That was amazing! I've got a pile of hones in my back yard! I'm going to start FleaBaying these tonight!
    I have an issue with "breadboarding", but Bricking an edge - pure genius.
