Knife people;

Was gifted a fixed blade that is really dull. On looking at the knife itself it’s not quite straight.

What is the best way to get this sharp? I imagine it’s a bit more complicated because it’s not perfectly straight.

I have a sharpener that’s got the clamp and you run it over the stones. Also have one of the standard kitchen sharpeners that you run the knife through - don’t think this is right.

Have you tried using the sharpener with the clamp ? What happened when you tried that ?

Sharpening knifes is a little bit knacky , especially if you want to get a razor edge, don't feel bad if you can't get it perfect sharp.

I’ll give it a whirl on this new knife tonight. The knives I’ve tried it on were smaller so that may be a factor. It gave an edge but not a great one - may have been my lack of experience.
