Pringles can and some silicon carbide paper of various grits.
Costs WAY less than $50...and you get a snack!

Well, you can't beat ingenuity! No reason that wouldn't work.

I sharpen a buddy of mine's karambit with my diamond rods, the same ones I use on my slight recurves. Start at 600g, then to 1200g. He uses it to open boxes. I charge him a cigar (or a snort or two) and it screams when done.

But... no snack! May have to rethink my process...!!

The corners of sharpmaker stones work well.

Snacks are important.

Sharpening is easy... Grinding em is a bitch.
