Hello all.
I need help with one of my Hortons.
This knife is a big chopper, .40 inches thick.
I use it and now its a bit dull. I mean, its sharp, but it cant cut paper like a normal Horton does.
I try with a strop, black compound and nothing.
Should I go back to sand paper and then strop?
Should I keep stropping the knife until its sharp again?
Most important, how the hell do I know that Im using the strop correctly?
Should I buy a power tool? and if thats the case, which one?
Any feed back from you guys its well appreciated.
Thanks.
