Profile or no profile??!

[skyhuck]

I sharpen mine with the flat file I use for my rakers, probably sharpen them once a year.

Still using my first spikes...had them twelve years only changed the gaffs a couple of times, pads a few and the steel frame once or twice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Same goes for my rake...

Got a brush like that. Head has two holes. One for the shaft and the other takes a candle for night work.

Got to agree with SWB about the geckos, gaff is reasonably safe from accidental damage unless some one goes out of their way and walks them over junk; quick tickle with a flat file and biting like new.

Ok, Thanks for the replies Guys.....an hour with the flat file and they all sharp and pointy but the lack of profile/angle concerns me! Lol! Oh well, I'll find out tomorrow!

 

An hour they must be gillette sharp
