Sharpening Blades - Did anyone save this?
« on: Nov 08, 2015, 07:29 AM »
Last year I came across a thread http://www.iceshanty.com/ice_fishing/index.php?topic=295006.msg3086365#msg3086365 that had a link to an awesome article on blade sharpening. That link http://setthehook.com/icefishing/bladesharpening/index.html has unfortunately been (re?)moved.  :( It appears to be connected to Redrock store in Ely MN.

I'm wondering if anyone here saw that article and copied it. If so would you be willing to share? I know there is a pile of info here on blade sharpening including one particularly useful tutorial with awesome pics. I'd still like to review that Redrock article. I did write Joe asking if it was still "somewhere" and would he share it. If he obliges I'd also ask for permission to repost as I thought it was valuable information.

Hopefully one of you will have it. Your sharing it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the reply and the link diehard. I had not come across that but I don't believe it's the same article. Similar, but not the same. I remember pics as well.

Now to the best part. I just found a guy who copied the original and has it in Word format. Yeah, it was me...... ::) I'm a victim of my own compulsion and disorganization. So the rest of you can stand down.

I dropped Joe another line telling him I found it and asked for permission to share, repost, whatever. If he agrees I'll have to figure out how to make that available on line.
