I thought I sharpen knecker knife todsy with 5 piece lansky sharper with angle guide, out hone oil, should I use water or wd40? Last season I sharpen knife an still had the bur on edge, is that normal that after sharpen that do not have to put new bur on edge blade ?
And how do you use a Lansky system on something the size of a fleshing knife? Seems like you would have to clamp at multiple locations, couldn't do the whole edge from one place. And can you get the right angle with a Lansky?
I don't get why sharpen knife an then take back edge of knife an run across sharp hard an put bur on edge to protect from cut holes pelt an ruin sharpness

Speak Yoda he does not Speak Ebonics he does, yes, confusing it is. Lol
First of all some that reply on this post, know what this bur that I talking about on knife is, others are not knowledgeable of fleshing knifes. U are supposed to have a bur on the angled part of knife on edge blade that u can feel with fingernail, to protect from cut holes in pelt, u use good quality knife an run back edge of blade on the fleshing knife an do it a few times an turn the metal over an make a bur. I sharpen it before with the lil honing oil I had an put new bur on it, after i done, what I asking is when doing this, make a bur, the way u make the bur, it almost has to be dulling the knife edge

Well I think everyone knows what the bur is. I just don't speak Chinese... or ebonics.

Basically you’re asking how to make the burr, and why, when I sharpen regular knives and tools on my tormek the burr is created just from the process of grinding and then I use the leather honing wheel to remove the burr except on scissors. On the scissors they claim it makes it sharper now on a fleshing knife I’m not sure why I think we need Lee to comment on this.
I never knew u needed the bur, until at nafa demo at nta convention 2 summers ago in Illinois, I asked an plainly show it to.me, he used a file to put bur on edge, say it fine if sharpen but to put bur on edge an if bresk off , to put a new one on. I took my knife to ita convention 2 yrs ago an person I pm an met, that was vendor, did it for me. I just still not totaly understand how keeps ftom cutting holes in pelt. An u would think it dulls the knife the way u put bur on
Probably as many ways to flesh a skin as there is to skin a cat. My knife has one side knife sharp and the inside curve dull. Knife sharp may be wrong but it works good for me. I shave off a beaver plew from the nose to the tail. Start in the middle and work to the nose then start in the middle and work to the tail. Shaving off a strip that is wide enough to reach into the fat on the sides. Then I start in the middle again only I push the fat off the sides pushing to the outside edge with the dull inside curve.
