Xacto blade sharpen tip - blather about flockings

Interesting art supplies and a technique for "sharpening an X-acto" blade. I haven't tried this but thought it was curious.... aye?

That is an interesting idea. I think I will have to try it. Why did he stop saying "aye" once he finished talking about xacto blades? Aye?

So have you tried that technique with the exacto blades, eh?
I'm intrigued because I go through those things so quickly, and he's right it's only the tip I'm using, eh.

That's pretty cool. But what's with all the background noise. Aye. Sounds like he's living under an overpass.

I haven't tried this technique. It actually seemed a little scary to me.

There are several blade sharpening videos on YouTube, but they are done by what appear to be ten year olds.

I actually run my blades through my knife sharpener (it's one with the two rotating metal wheels). It seems to work pretty well for me.
