Hey guys,
I've nicked the edge of one of my knives. This is the first time I've had to take it to sharpen, so far I've been able to keep a keen edge just with stropping. The nick is less than a 1mm deep, and the blade is CPM3V & convexed. Still paper shaving sharp but you can feel it snag, and it bugs me when I see the nick :yikes:
Can anyone suggest what grade of sandpaper to start off from? I have 400 up to 2000.
