Hi all,
Over the weekend I got an Emerson CQC-7B-BT as a 'heavy-duty' folder to keep in my Fatboy. It feels great, I was just feeling disappointed that it was not sharper out of the box (maybe I am just spoiled because the Benchmade 551 I got was really sharp out of the box). Since I do not have much experience with sharpening knives, can anyone offer any tips on how to sharpen this knife? The blade is quite different from any other knives I have in that it has a tanto tip and is only ground on one side. I have no clue how to sharpen this and I do not want to ruin the blade by doing something I should not. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
