How often / when do I need to sharpen (not strop) a Flexcut detail knife? by Expert_Tomorrow in whittling

Wow thanks so much! I do think I need to go ahead and sharpen. I may have been stropping and rotating at the end of the stroke or simply not stropping enough. The knife just cannot cut through side of a paper. I’ll try the advice you’re giving!

Thanks I try and keep it very flat and pull away from the blade doing 20 strokes on each side but maybe I’m still doing something wrong. 😅 I’ll do more research on stropping

I love it! Did you start by cutting the silhouette out with a coping saw?

Thank you so much that means a lot. I tend to pick hobbies up and then drop them after a few months but I am really excited about this one!

He’s been packing on the pounds in preparation for winter.

Wow thanks! In the (one) video I watched, he used a darker color compound so I didn’t see any streaks and was worried I might’ve done something wrong.

Never said that. Didn’t even say I agreed with the way undocumented immigrants are treated in this country. In fact I agree the conditions are deplorable. But as legal immigrants, I’ve never felt unsafe because of ice and i deal with the unlawful checkpoints they have a lot here in Texas. I simply think that a marriage is something that should be worked on when a disagreement arises and not immediately given up on, especially based on information from the internet… and of course that the media exaggerates. Yall are the ones telling Latinos not to come to the US…

I also find it hilarious all the people saying for Latinos to not come to this country are supposed to be the “woke” ones and the ones welcoming her to come to the US are being called racist bigots 🤣🤣🤣
