RE: Hook sharpening method or tool help
Make a bunch of them with Norton 3x paper and paint paddle mixers(free at all hardware store).
Spray adhesive the back of a peice of norton 220 3x sheet, lay about 5or6 paddles across the sheet weight down the sheet and paddles with a couple heavy books as they dry and then cut them out with a razor knife. I glue 800 grit on the back of mine to final polishthe burrs outof the point.Thispolishingstep may not make the point feel any sharper, but it does make it more durable.
Lastly, if coating point is needed to prevent corosian,use a broad tippaint marker instead of permanant marker . The paint is a thin coat and it protects alot better. Paint marker are usualy found at craft stores like michaels and come in gold or silver.
