    I know for a fact I read a thread with tips on sharpening flat ground blades but I cant remember where for the life of me. I searched but didnt find what I was looking for.

    Can someone point me to the thread OR give feedback on how best to sharpen mount flat ground blades in the jaws?

    I finally used about 7 layers of blue painters tape on the very upper edge of the jaws. But I wonder if there is a better way to do it. I ended up getting pretty good results on my Strider SMF tanto. But it was still a little off.

    The double sided sticky tape that is about a 1/16 thick seems to work good too.
