Just bought a few tramotinas (luckily they're cheap) THey came with really bad edges and was just wondering what angle I should be looking to maintain while sharpening them??? they will be used primarily for brushwork and saplings..up to a maximum of wrist thickness..Thanks
 
I have two, one for cutting through soft material in the garden and one for tougher materal like tree branches. 20°-25°/side for soft cutting and 30°-35°/side for hard use...
