How Hard??

[BrentH]

As a complete newbie, may I ask how hard is a blade when a mill bastard file cannot bite??

Sure you may Brent. And Welcome to the Cantina!

If you have a brand new Nicholson or similar quality file it will not bite into a 60 Rc blade.

That was easy...

Welcome to the Cantina.

Thank you. Have lurked for some time..
Knowledge is most impressive.
Humour is even more so!
Going to chop nails...
Thanks again...
Will be back. Addicted.

Even with a Norton stone I can feel the hard spot- less resistance as you pass over.

Diamond stones seem to tame khuks...
