Hi guys I have a bunch of snuffers, I just need to know how to sharpen them. I tried the file thing but didn't work, have you guys ever tried the snuffer tamer? any help or advise would be appreiacted. THANKS

if you type "sharpening snuffers" into the search function on the site here, you will find a ton of info on sharpening snuffers.    

Snuffer tamer works like a charm.

If the wide file (two blades on file at once) didn't work it's probably because you were using too much pressure.

Use file until you have a burr then remove burr with a few (and I mean just a few) LIGHT strokes on a crock stick or fine diamond stick.

I used to use the Tamer but now use Charlie's method (above) with excellent results
(and it's a lot faster).
The Snuffer Tamer does work very well but requires changing the bevel angle which takes some work.They do get scary sharp with either method.

I tried the Snuffer Tamer but went back to sharpening on a flat stone. The Tamer changes the angle, so I wasn't confident that I could resharpen them properly on a hunt without the Tamer at hand. I would have also had to rework the angle on ALL my Snuffers, which would have been a big job. Just lazy I guess, but I've been perfectly satisfied with their performance when sharpened on the flat stone.

I use what I call a "10 factorial" process. I push them across the stone 10 times with pretty good pressure, rotating and repeating until all edges have been worked. Then I do it 9 times on each side, then 8, etc. with progressively lighter pressure until the last few turns are with very light pressure. I then strop on leather and at that point they should shave.
