She lives in a rowhouse with a tiny yard without a single tree on it. Maybe she need it for something else - or someone.

ContrarianTrail OP ,

Not very - it doesn’t need to be. Sharpened and re-profiled it with a 80 grit flap disc on angle grinder and took it to polishing wheel + leather strop. The shine is just for the looks.

ContrarianTrail OP ,

That’s mostly why I polished it, though we might be thinking of different contaminants

ContrarianTrail OP ,

I have no idea. It was one of those black fibre ones that you attach to a drill. I had originally used it to polish stainless steel after welding. Stropping is the difference between reflecting light and reflecting image

ContrarianTrail OP ,

Yeah, edge that sharp serves no purpose on axe. It’ll bend and then be dull again. Shallower point with the burr removed is more durable and stays sharp(ish) for much longer.

ContrarianTrail OP ,

Not even close. That level of sharpness would only matter on axe if you intend to use it as a weapon. Chopping wood with edge like that would just bend it and make it dull prematurely.

ContrarianTrail OP ,

I was dunking this into water between the heavy grinding. Heat is the enemy there.

ContrarianTrail OP ,

Shovel is a common item many don’t realize needs sharpening too
