Review on Flexcut Slipstrop Polishing Deburring PW12 by Ryan Hill

I've just taken up wood carving as a hobby and have started using a range of Flexcut knives and chisels. I have a set of expensive sharpeners and could always make a razor blade on any knife I own, but I've had to get 'creative' when it comes to sharpening and edging some small chisels, including using an old cardboard box and a rolled one piece of leather. Then when I was looking for books on relief carving, I saw this and thought "why not". Now that I've had it for about a week, I'm confident enough to give it a well-rated review. The different shapes saved me the trouble of keeping my blade razor sharp. Although some of them don't have the exact shape of the tool, it's easy enough to tilt the edge to one side or the other to ensure good contact. My only complaint, which seems to have been raised in other reviews, is that the compound bar tends to get "powdery" if not warmed up a bit first. Overall, this simple piece of wood has helped streamline my workflow. No more unnecessary things cluttering up my workspace. If you're looking for a simple and inexpensive way to keep your edges sharp, then this is for you! Have fun carving!
