Some tricks of the trade for setting up and sharpening a Japanese chisel. I use a kanna ban and water stones to get a scary sharp chisel hone. There are lots of different ways to sharpen but this is fairly quick and can result in a keen edge. Timestamps below:

3:08 - Basic back flattening
5:08 - Stage 1 kanna ban flattening
7:03 - Stage 2 kanna ban flattening
8:27 - Kanna ban first polish
9:07 - Kanna ban final polish
10:55 - First grit bevel side sharpening
15:14 - Bevel initial polish
15:50 - Burr removal
16:30 - Micro bevel and finish
