Wrap emery cloth around a mill file.Start with a coarser grit down to fine than use a buffing wheel

Hey Quadrafire, Bull here. Hey! So are you making any progress with your buffing process? I know you'll caustiously approach it at first, but as you begin to grt the hang of applying the blade to the buffing wheel, you'll get caustiously comfortable with it. Ya know, after I had that knife flung out of my hands and had it stuck in the freezer, It's kinda like ridin' a horse that throw's you.  Walk it off for a bit, then climb back up on it and try again. I know, a little bit difference realizing that knife could be sticking thru your gut, and getting bounced off a horse, but then again, that damn horse may stomp ya too!! Bull

Nah, Bull I haven't had a chance to yet. Still on the backburner though. Thanks for all the input.
