I have problem sharpening an older butcher-kitchen eicker solingen knife,have tried destressing the edge too,but it seems that blade somehow lost the temper or something.Even after taking the burr off the edge is barelly shaving and edge doesnt last at all.Knife was used my buself and also used,abused by others,also ground on beltsander-grinder before.Could it be that the temper is ruined,because these eicker solingen knives should take killer edge.I have been sharpening for 30 years and have no problem sharpening to hair shaving edge in no time.I used sil carbide norton stone on this knife.All input welcome.
