Steve Blowing my own horn here, but check out my web site and make the sharppening jig or buy a commercial one. This is a great group to post questions. The guys and gals are helpful and together we have made all the mistakes possible. Of course having said that, someone will now try to make a liar out of me with a new mistake, but that is life :-) .
