I have a Taiwanese made folder made by a reputable company. Actually I have several of them, I think they're such a good value that I just hauled off and bought several of them.
Anyway one of them I carry around doing dirty work with it. It's been needing to be sharpened for awhile now, and funny thing is, it doesn't seem to want to take an edge very well. Alongside one of the ones that hasn't had any use, it's let's say not sharp.
Normally I know how to sharpen good kitchen knives, etc. I've tried diamond stones and water stones.
The steel used in the blade is 4024, IIRC.
Throw it in the trash and use one of the other ones until it's worn out?
Any suggestions appreciated.
