    Brutal. Let's talk about ruining the temper of the steel. Use a knife sharpening hone. Sorry, this video is a joke

    VERY UNSAFE!! Where is the tool rest? to be safe and protect yourself from grinder wheel explosion should you drop the chisel a tool rest is a must. If this is a commercial shop OSHA will probably be by if they have seen this video.
