Hi guys!
So a couple of days ago I simply it a twig in half and now there's a small part of the blade that is rolled. Most people wouldn't notice it but I'm extremely bothered by this.
Any suggestions how to get rid of this? Not the knife, the rolled edge.
 
A few passes on something like a sharpmaker rod should do it.
 
Oh that's good to hear.
I guess I'll have to live with it for a little while as I have my sisters birthday coming up and being only 14 I don't have too much money. It is a truly microscopic part of the blade that rolled so it doesn't really matter that much.
When I get the sharp maker what else do I need? Diamond rods? Also, what does a strop do? Can I just use a leather belt?
 
Diamond rods are used to repair damage like a chip or to re profile or thin out the edge.A strop is used to maintain the edge and remove any burr that may be left behind from sharpening.You can strop on a leather belt.
 
Okay thanks for the info :).
So will I need diamond rods for this problem?

Going to bed. 1:05AM here. Will read replies in the morning. :)
 
No not for a roll in the edge.
