Speaking of knife/axe sharpener, I have experienced of getting of from Amazon, and use it on my axe. And it didn't do much work.

So the conclusion is that, THE AXE/KNIFE SHARPENER DOESN"T WORK!

I ended up listen to my friend advice and bring it to the local hardware store here in birminghma and get it sharpen for only $5 B)

You can use a file or take it to one of your local hardware stores as they usually have this service at affordable prices. Also wrap the axe in newspaper when not in use. This helps to keep the blade sharp.

if you have a dremel you can sharpen it with one of the bits in the kit i'm sure.
