Once the correct bevel has been put on the blade, one or two light strokes on each side of the blade with a ceramic hone will put the blade back to a “razor edge.”  (If you don’t have a ceramic hone, an old leather belt works very well for a strop.)   We do not recommend any “pull through” sharpening device, or any “diamond” steel. These will damage a perfectly sharpened blade, greatly reducing its life.
