usually I feel that I am grinding off more blade than I need. It seems
that knowing the correct "angle" to hold the blade to the stone is the key,
but for the life of me I can't seem to get the hang of it.
And no, this is not a troll.
These are the easiest tools to use, And with a little practice will be sharpening blades like a pro, But don't foreget to blunt the edge a little with a flat file as mentioned above.
