I finally made a (very) short video showing edge paring using an English style A2 Cryo knife. Hopefully, early next year, in the new tool catalog, there will be videos of all the tools in action. In the meantime, descriptions and images of tools are in the “TOOL CATALOG” in the right hand column.
Video seems a promising technology for the preservation of craft based knowledge: it can clearly demonstrate and record hand skill techniques. It can also be potentially misleading in terms of how easily a tool is used, and “special effects” are available on any computer. But videos are popular, great for marketing, persuasive and hot right now.
Sit back, eat a piece of popcorn and enjoy the next 39 seconds.
