How To Work Sharp Precision Adjust and blades with cutouts

[CaPpedDoG]

Any work around when sharpening blades with the Work Sharp Precision Adjust that have a cutout in the blade and the clamp won't fit properly?

You could try to make a shim/spacer/pad out of old inner tube rubber, cardboard, painter's tape, etc that would allow you some surface area to clamp on. I think a lot of people do that for full flat ground blades on systems with clamps like this. I've thought about taking a dremel/die grinder to the v-notches on the sides to allow me to ram a blade further into the clamp as well.
