Why is my blade not getting sharp?

If your blade isn’t getting sharp:

- You only sharpened your blade with one pass (creating blocky teeth)
- Incompatible blade material
- Incorrect drill speed/pressure
- Not using the Sharptool correctly
- blade that is too damaged to recover
- Manufacturing fault

Start with these checks:


(1.) Confirm the blade is compatible SharpTool 2.0 is designed for sawable multitool blades made of HCS, HSS, BIM, and titanium-coated blades. 
Carbide blades are NOT suitable, Carbide is harder than the sharpening head and can wear it down while removing the carbide edge. 


(2.) Use correct sharpening technique: Attach SharpTool 2.0 to your drill. Start at low speed and use light pressure, let the CBN head do the work. Sharpen in 2 or 3 passes depending on what you want to cut


(3.) Prevent overheating (heat kills results) Overheating reduces cutting performance and increases wear. Sharpen a maximum of 1 blade per minute and let the blade/head cool down fully.


(4.) Inspect the blade condition (some blades cannot be “saved”) If the blade is cracked, bent, missing chunks/teeth, or heavily corroded, replace it. Damaged blades can break and are not worth sharpening.
