fourth tried to made jig to correct edge

but it didn't work because its groove was thick

finally I hammered both sides of the blade
blade didn't bend and edge didn't chip

and took Sharpmaker (mediam stone), and #2000 sandpaper
waves didn't disappear but temporary repair was possible

I limbed off same tree two days ago,
then no rolls/waves and any problems were happened
except my mistakes injured front part of the edge.

On the other side I used to chop with Japanese traditional "Nata"
and probably I used Rocksalt at the same way.
I have handled Nata very roughly and
did not consider to thickness, grind, and weight of Rocksalt
when I rolled its edge.
