How does a knife sharpener function? The basic principle of handheld knife sharpeners is to use two pieces of tungsten caride in an aVa formation to wear off the metal on one side of a blade and create a new edge. This can either be a great way of restoring dull blades, or a complete abomination.

How do you sharpen a belt knife?

Start with a 150-grit belt to sharpen yours. Use light pressure to run one side of your blade along the belt. The sharp edge should be at an angle to the buckle. Then sand the opposite side. Next, turn off the sander and replace it with a 240-grit belt. Finally, sharpen once more.
