Sharpening cabinet scrapers

Pat B:
A screw driver with a round shank makes a good burnisher and ie easy to hold and control.

Eric Krewson:
I had always used a screwdriver shank or the burnisher that came with a Torges tool. On a whim I ordered a made in England, Crown burnishing tool a while back to see if it was better than what I was using. I tried it out today for the first time, it worked very well, and has what appears to be very fine tooth like rings on it to move more metal. It was like a finer version of a butcher's steel. It took very few strokes to raise a nice burr.

lebhuntfish:
That's good to know Eric.
Kyle has a burnishing tool set, I used it once at mojam. It seamed to work very well. I'll see if I can get a picture of the butcher steel I use. The rod is smooth as glass.
