Hi there
A friend of mine has asked me to sharpen his knife. At first it looked like an easy task, but when I took it, I had to put it back on a table and stand back a bit. It's a hunters knife, has got laminated blade and only the fine edge is to be sharpened. I'm well used to a flat grind sharpening, but this is my first. So before I spoil the blade, I want an advice from you. How would you sharpen this knife?
i haven't got any diamond sharpening systems, only 5 pound sharpening kit. Any jigs you'd advice me to make/get? I want to get this right, because hunters seek this kind of service all the time and I could help them if I learn......
It has got " Steel 65x13" written on it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Andy
