I need some help. I have an aluminum oxide stone, and am trying to sharpen my cheap SW knife. The only way I can get that 'burr' on the edge is by going in circular motions on the stone. Then I do it on the other side so theres no more burr. Then I repeat a few times on the finer grit. However, its not close to that 'shave hair off the arm' sharpness. I've tried to sharpen it at the smalest angle possible, but ended up scratching the rest of the blade:banghead: Any suggestions?
Also, the stone gets really smooth (clogged??) after about 15 min of sharpening. Anyy suggestions on restoring it, other than sandpaper?
Thanks :banghead:
