Not sure if Ira talked to you about this or not but he might want you to take his Nils up if you are going but I don't know that for a fact, I just know he needs to get his Nils sharpened.
I've mentioned this before. It really is easy to sharpen them. Anybody that can sharpen a good knife can sharpen a Nils. Just make sure to keep the same angle on that top side all the way up the curve of the blade. I use a "Work Sharp" knife sharpening tool. It has 1 /2" grinding belts in 80, 220 and 6000 grit. But I am excited to get a new kit: the Moviron Knife Sharpening System. At $45, it comes with 10 stones 120 to 3000 grit. It looks like these stones are going to work great. And should last forever. I need to touch up my 8" but will wait to use these new stones.
I think most of us don't have the confidence you do Randy, that we could do it and not mess the blades up.
