which edge do you sharpen top or rounded edge?
BEST ANSWER: Hey Robert! Always sharpen the rounded edge only. Rikon’s slow speed 8” grinder does a great job sharpening lathe tools. Once you have sharpened the rounded edge, it is a good idea to lightly hone the flat top and bottom tool surfaces with a diamond hone to remove any burrs that could cause a “catch”.

Robert Sorby 1" scraper
This tool works great! I needed one that was between 3/4" and my 1 1/2" scraper. This fits perfect and does a great job. I would recommend this to any wood turner.

This is my first HSS chisel so I'm hoping it will hold its edge longer. I was not comfortable with the short wooden handle so I remounted it on my own much longer and stronger handle. Seems good so far

This is a fine tool. I wish the handle were longer.
