I may have been a little too overzealous with my new Beast from the Southeast! I think I hit some pebbles in the ground while bashing through sapling roots. I couldn't help myself, this thing was striking down upon those saplings with great vengeance and furious anger!
Best way to restore this damage? I'm not really a skilled sharpener, so should I send this in for rehab and a promise to keep it away from rocks??
What techniques and implements would you use? Is there a recommended protocol for sharpening edge damage on a D3V chopper?
Only time I am ever able to PM with Nathan is when he sends one to me telling me I am being a dick on the forum. Then, I reply thinking the door is open and he just ignores me. No love from that guy at all, good luck.Nathan the Machinist , make some room in the inbox please. Its not an obtuse question.......this time

F*%k no! Isn’t that like saying Beetlejuice three times?If you ever really need his attention like RIGHT NOW, post something with both his last name and 'retained austentite' on it.....

Nathan,
Will the Notakatana have a purposeful design phase where the blade, geometry and overall form will be engineered toward some intended purpose?
I'm thinking of the effort into design and testing and tweaking on the K18 with the end goal in mind.
Or will it be like the Kephart with an emphasis of historical faithfulness?
Well, he IS calling it a Notta-Katana...Nathan,

Doden. "Sand stand" to minimize damage to the blade with a through cut.I think it's a pile of sand, to absorb the blood?
