“Sharpening Simplified” is an extremely clear and complete piece of instruction, refreshingly well-done without gimmicks, computer graphics tricks, or (ugh) background music. Straight forward information, clearly delivered. Congratulations!

I have viewed your video. It’s super. I especially liked the “V” tool and micro tool section. It really is a wonderful w ork on detail and instruction. Whoever filmed it for you was excellent.

Thank you for an excellent video! It is very thorough.

I have already tried some of your (Video) techniques with wonderful result s; I love the sandpaper thing and it no longer takes hours to accomplish a sharp tool....I’m recommending your video to all of my carving friends.

Thank you so much for making this video on sharpening tools. As you stated, many of us struggle to learn how to sharpen. I have been carving for 12 years and during that time tried to learn how to sharpen well, with minimal success and lots of agonizing.

After watching your video, I built a box to set on my workbench that created the height needed and started resharpening my tools. It was exciting to see almost instant results with your techniques. I was particularly amazed to be able to do a good job on my “V” tools.

Thanks a million. Every woodcarver should own this tape.

My wife thought she had been carving with sharp tools prior to the time we met you at Ft. Meyers — but her newly-learned Ellenwood sharpening ability has made a huge difference in her enjoyment and feeling of productivity! Thank you again.

This is a really helpful video. I recently paid $70.00 for a sharpening class at a local woodworking store and didn’t get a fraction of the information I got from your video. Wish I’d heard about it earlier.

Your sharpening video was excellent. Easy to follow and execute. I wish I had it (the video) five years ago. It would have saved many knives, and a lot of frus tration.

Thanks for the video. I have watched it a couple of times and find it most useful. I have “wrecked” a good few of my tools on power buffing so your systems look great and confirm some of my views (especially the use of wet /dry paper) on sharpening. Your great video has answered a lot of my questions.

As I stated in my short conversation with you sir, I was spellbound by the clear and precise way you show how to sharpen. Also, enjoyed looking at your great carvings. Thank you again and I’ll use this video in my classes if you don’t mind.

Thanks for making sharpening so believable. Your DVD is great! We are both carvers and not good sharpeners. Hopefully now we can do something about that! Thanks for giving us hope that we can do t his!
