I am in desperate need of help in sharpening these little devils. The more angled they are, the harder they are to sharpen without "rounding" the blade! I consider myself "pretty good" at sharpening, but these are next level difficult for me. I even took them to a professional sharpener who gave them back to me no better than I could do.
Has anyone here used a little sharpening jig that can hold a skewed blade at the perfect angle?
I apologize for spamming... I'm commenting my thoughts to you in real time haha. But I think this would be a better/more feasible way of creating a jig. Let me know if this makes sense to you. Might be difficult to get the blade totally flat and articulated to the diamond plate without tilting (if you are clamping to leather wrapped handles), but it could probably be done well enough by playing around with where you screw the wood pieces together and how much pressure you apply.
