I sharpened a D-8 today. Needed a little extra jointing but wasn’t too bad. The interesting one was a NOS Stanley. Early 90s I think but it looked and felt pretty good in hand. Customer specifically wanted it retoothed from crosscut to a rip. He even told me he knew it was in amazing shape, nice sharp teeth but he wanted this filed rip 5.5 ppi at 6 degrees rake. I was almost sad to retooth it, but it came out great and I hope he enjoys it.
