Contributing Editor Chris Gochnour demonstrates how to revive a dull dovetail saw or turn a mediocre saw into a high-performance tool. In this video, the Salt Lake City-based woodworker demonstrates his five-step sharpening process: 

  1. Joint the teeth to a consistent height.
  2. Shape the teeth to a point.
  3. Set the teeth for a suitable kerf. 
  4. Sharpen the teeth.
  5. Finally, hone to remove burrs.

Chris will be a featured presenter at Fine Woodworking Live 2018, demonstrating handplanes for joinery.This seminar will survey two categories of joinery planes: those for cutting joints and those for tuning and fitting joints. Chris will discuss sharpening, tuning, and setup. He’ll demonstrate how to make and fit a large range of woodworking joints, including rabbet, stopped rabbet, dado, tongue and groove, tenon, tapered sliding dovetail, and miter joints. Register now to save $50 with our early bird rate!
