I'd like to add doing some practice. Go into the kitchen and sharpen everything. Strive for razor sharp. Where it'll shave hair on your leg or arm. Do a lawn mower blade. When you feel confident about being able to put an edge on your good knife. Hook it up.
Yeah, this blade is in need of an expert. Normally I sharpen my knives but in this case I need some one that is a surgeon on blades. Got a really good deal on the knife knowing it needs to be worked on. This is going to need more than stones or belt sander. Thanks for the info Grasshopperglock. I'll reach out to them this week to see if they can tackle the blade.
