Sharpening a Sebenza

[simbad]

Thanks for the help fellas, will use also the sharpie method :thumbup:

After I started using the sharpmaker the way this guy is showing us I really didn't have any trouble getting the clip point super sharp, tip and all, ever again. Stropping, after sharpening and at regular basis with heavy use, also helps with this "issue".

The interesting part starts at 2.40.

That is a great vid, thanks for posting. Haven't used my sharpmaker in ages, may have to take it back out!

If you are using a Sharpemaker,after using the corners turn to the flats and use very light pressure(white stones)then using some cardboard, back of a notebook works well,strop a couple of times then a couple of times on Sharpemaker and repeat.This will get a hair popping sharp blade.

I've had a lot of luck just stropping on a hard stop with green compound (pretty aggressive) FYI the harbor freight compounds work great and are dirt cheap.
