Sharpening a Sword by Hand

Here I take my brand new Hanwei Tinker Viking sword which wasnt as sharp as I would have liked and make my first attempt at sharpening a sword on my bench stones. I will be honest there were a few moments where I wondered if I was going to ruin it but all in all it turned out ok.
