Hypothetical Situation: It's summer, you've been fishing open water for a couple of months. You find a set of auger blades from winter that you KNOW are quite dull. Your last memory of them was a very poor performance. You want to try some different techniques to sharpen them.
Question: How do you test how sharp your auger blades are when there's no ice to test them?
Equipment: StrikeMaster Mora, 6" and Lazer 8" blades.
Reality: I bought new blades to get me through the winter and didn't sharpen my old blades. I will try to sharpen them during the summer but need a way to verify the sharpness.
Any suggestions?
