Well I was practicing my fire making skills with my BK7, and I accidentally hit the curved part of the blade, about an 1" in. It look pretty rough, but I straightened everything back out, and it is very sharp now, but I still have some mini-dings in it. Not a huge deal, but it bugs me.

The only sharpener I have is a Sharpmaker, would the medium sticks be enough to eventually work these out? What else can I do? Should I just ignore it for now?

Thanks!
