Bob Hershey, Award-Winning Carver, Member of Caricature Carving of America
The longer I'm involved with carving and teaching carving the more convinced I am that a great number of people are working with dull tools. Lora Irish has provided a great guide to learning the fundamentals of hand sharpening. Sharp tools are essential to a pleasant and successful carving experience. With Lora's easy-to-follow instructions and enough practice, anyone should be able to vastly improve their sharpening skills.

Tom Hindes, Best-Selling Author of 20-Minute Whittling Projects and Whittling in Your Free Time
The main reason beginners abandon woodcarving is the inability to keep their tools sharp. This publication will go a long way in removing that problem.
