Where is everyone #5

Speaking of stabbing, no matter how much I tried, I could never quite get knives sharp on a stone. If anyone else is challenged there, I suggest Work Sharp. It even works on serrated knives and my electric fish knives.

This is what've always used. You can shave with the knife after it.

This is going in my coffee:

 

It's all in the angle - something I can never get just right or consistent. I gave up doing anything freehand that was smaller than lawnmower blades lol. Same thing with chainsaw blades. Once I got a grinder sharpener and perfectly consistent results, I hardly ever run a file on my chains.

 

But does it dice and julianne?

sorry couldn’t help myself

seen one too many infomercial

 

Cause I ain't putting no tampon on my face if a store wants to make masks mandatory
Combine that with some cheap sunglasses for the ultimate fashion statement

 

No dice or julianne, but it does sharpen gut hooks! lol

 

First...chainsaws don't have blades...hence the name. The problem with the grinder type sharpening of a chain, due to the speed the grinder is spinning, it is very easy to create far too much heat on the cutting edge. Heat and steel are not a good combination when trying to maintain a strong sharp edge. Using the round file (correct size for the chain is critical) during a cutting session will take the burrs and nicks out of the edge, creating a better cut. It is a good habit to run a quick file round (two or three swipes) on the chain at each fuel break.
