I bought a Case Chestnut trapper in chrome vanadium and it came with a chip in the blade.I don't feel like sending it back,paying for shipping, and then waiting to recieve it so I'm planning on getting it out myself.I have a few questions and they are:
1.I have a spyderco sharpmaker and I have the medium,fine,and ultra fine rods.Would the medium,fine,and ultra fine rods be enough to get a small chip out or would I need the diamond stones?
2.If I do need the diamond stones to get the chip out, what are the pros/cons of the diamond rods? and how many strokes/how much pressure should I use on the diamond rods before going to the medium,fine,and ultrafine rods?
Please answer this and thanks for takeing time to read it.
