Sweet knife. Got a Klein hawkbill but damn if I know how to sharpen hawkbill blades properly. Think I need a diamond rod, the ceramic one I have is nice to hone with, but I need something more aggressive to start with. Short of taking it to my belt sander, I’d prefer hand methods. Any suggestions old friend?

Thanks Bud! Cool👍 Belt sander is my go to..got the leather honing belt and it works great. I think your on the right track using a rod to sharpen it....can't say I have a ton of experience with the curved blades...I think I just finessed it around the edge of the sand paper using the 1 x 30 belt sander starting with 150 grit, 300, then used the strop to finish it when I sharpened mine....probably not the best way....just my comfort zone I guess.
