Quesiton for the experienced and/or opinionated tuners out there:
When repairing edges from rock damage, what is your preferred procedure/tool(s)?
Do you de-tune first (side edge, then base edge), then file and finish with a diamond(s)?
If so, what do you prefer to use to remove case-hardened steel -- a coarse diamond, a pocket stone, or something else?
Is a coarse diamond enough to change edge angle? (I don't believe it is.)
Do you still file or do you use a sequence of ever-finer diamonds?
I'm always looking to refine my tuning procedures, so I'm looking for some opinions.
I did read Dipstik's guide to tuning.
Thanks!
