tpeters Report post Posted December 15, 2011 I've got a C.S. Osborne No. 34 scratch compass an was wondering how to sharpen the gouges that came with it. I've tinkered with 1000 and 1500 grit sandpaper,then moving to the strop. But they still seem to drag and chatter,not as bad as before. Am I just not going far enough or do I need to maybe use a jewelers file on the inside edge. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks. Torrey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
