The hollow grinding chisels started long before my business. For timber framing chisels I would hollow grind them and using Japanese wet stones sharpen them like many do a straight razor, using its spine as a guide for the bevel. When the hollow grind began to disappear I would put them on the generic wet wheel I had at the time to put the grind back in to essentially make it easier to sharpen by hand.
Many will argue, but using a belt machine in my opinion can be just as good and perhaps better in ways than using stones. Perhaps another thread!
