    You weren't kidding on the magical transformation when you used the linseed oil. That red was gorgeous from the bloodwood. Nicely done all the way around. You've always been a good videographer but this was really outstanding. Thank you for this, it was very enjoyable.

    An amazing restoration! The handle is beautiful!
    An advice about the sharpening process
    1. the stones you’re using are soaking stones, they should be soak in water for about 15 min (until there is no more bubbles coming out on them)
    2. Try to use the whole stone when sharpening
    3. For more consistent angle, the stones should be flat, you can flatten them by rubbing them on a sand paper (around 150-300 grit)
    That is placed on a flat surface, it will Also help to remove the “clocked” surface of the stones, a thing that will make the stones perform better.
