I'm able to consistently sharpen my tools to the point where they'll cleanly slice paper. I have a DC4 and one of Sheps 1000/6000 field kits. On the strop I use Brasso. However, I struggle to get them 'shaving' sharp (as a result my left arm is embarrassingly hairy!). Now I'm under the impression that the paper slice test means the edge is sharp enough for wood carving - the main task I put my tools to. Is there any advantage to getting tools shaving sharp, if so, any tips on getting there?
