I've read many posts where the poster has used machetes like the Cold Steel, variety - $20'ish range offerings.
They usually mention that all they need is a file to tune the blade up and they're ready to begin chopping again.
What kind of files are they talking about? The only files I've accumulated over the years would be too course for getting a sharp edge, they'd rip the edge up but good.
Anyone care to elaborate just a little bit so I can get a proper file for my machetes. I'm tired of using a course/medium stone on them. Maybe a file is what I need? Not sure though.
