Default redoing floor of fixing it?

These are good for finishing wood surfaces, as well as scraping old paint
off, etc. The edge gets a burr, and its like dragging a chisel backward.
You can get one at Home Depot, etc., but whether or not they are of any use
b/c unsharpened is another story. The tool itself is a pretty specific
piece of steel, and when sharpened properly you'll be the only guy on the
block. Don't know if the ones sold at the link above come sharpened.

seldom would anyone have a high hardenable usable piece steel around their
house they could use to "sharpen" one of these things. Defintely needas
practice at that too. Do not expect to open and sharpen it for immediate
use. Keeping these tuned is key. Inside the engine of a car in a piston
wrist pin. The sharpeners sold here if interested is probly a good idea,
make that definetely. Anyways these guys can answer your questions.
