  A reference guide for woodworkers which sets out to explain in plain terms the fastest and most effective ways to sharpen a wide range of implements, from a power-saw blade to an ordinary knife. Every woodworker understands the importance of having good, razor-sharp tools, since it is impossible to achieve quality without them. But why go to the trouble and expense of replacing them or sending them away to be sharpened when the techniques can be learned at home? Lee shows how tools cut and how to select the correct edge for a job. The illustrations include photomicrographs of tool edges. He also demonstrates how to reshape tools for specific uses and offers advice on the equipment required.
