Hey all, I had a question here about polishing a blade.
I had a nice looking C-mon Blackie and I was prepping it for use. It had some staining/pitting and I wanted to polish it off. SO I read a posting about using 220 grit paper to sand it off. It took FOREVER and I never really did get ALL of it off but it made it look rally nice. Anyways, when I finished, Itook it under a light. It had 10-15 small cracks running perpendicular from the blades edge. I was wondering what I did wrong, can it be fixed, and how can this be avoided? Basicly did I ruin this poor blade? Thanks guys your great!
