90x is used for most applications, while finer grits such as 400x put a silky finish on plane soles and blades. Grits are available individually or as a set of five 2 oz containers of 90x, 180x, 280x, 400x and 600x. PSA-backed plastic laminate sheets on glass speed up the process but are not mandatory.

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.
