    Question Smiles, frowns and waves

    Let me begin by saying I am a total newbie at this and that I'd like to fix this on my own.

    I found this Kama and another Razor (karnak) for $12. I bought them with the intention of using them to practice on (honing,restoring, etc). I took the Kama to the grinding wheel I have in the basement and ground out the chips. I was going to bring it to a knife sharpener but decided against it since it probably would have cost more than what The blade is worth. It looked pretty straight while I was doing it. But Now I see the train wreck of a job I did.

    How do I straighten out/level the edge? Should I bring it back to the grinding wheel and if so any tips on keeping my hand steady?

    Should I bread knife it? Can I use a Norton flattening stone for that.
