Members watersnake Posted November 29, 2011 Members Report Posted November 29, 2011 Can anyone tell me why my steel swivel knife blade is dragging . I have sharpened it and keep stroping it but it seems sticky and rough edges on the cut .. Quote I'd rather be a has been , than a never was at all
electrathon Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 Usually, the blade is dull or not properly sharpened. Sometimes it is the leather. Aaron Quote

Members Go2Tex Posted December 2, 2011 Members Report Posted December 2, 2011 Is the leather drum dyed? I have had problems with my knife dragging on drum dyed leather and found that frequent swipes on my strop board takes care of the problem. Quote Brent Tubre email: BCL@ziplinkmail.com
