Veritas honing compound, a blend of chromium and aluminium oxide giving the best combination of cutting speed and fine finish. The bonding is formulated for easy charging, and it adheres equally well to felt, leather or wood.

It cuts quickly but leaves a mirror finish with a light wax film, with an average scratch pattern of 0.5 microns. Ideal for carving tools and gouges, it can be used for final honing of almost any tool, with a felt wheel or leather belt for power honing or a leather strop by hand.

There are several good ways to sharpen chisels and plane irons: water stones, diamond stones, oil stones and sharpening machines such as Tormek. All give sharp edges, but they differ in speed, maintenance and price.

A honing guide makes it easier to keep the same angle every time. The most important thing is to find a method you enjoy and use often. The guide helps you choose.

Which water stone you need depends on how dull your edges are and how fine a finish you want. A common setup is a coarse stone around 1000 grit to shape the edge and a fine stone around 5000–8000 grit to polish it. For chipped edges you need a coarser stone too.

Water stones wear unevenly and need flattening regularly. The guide explains grits, brands and flattening.
