When adjusting the blade, gently remove the bolster from the handle with pliers or similar tool. Use the hinge pin to pivot the top haf of the handle until you fully expose the blade and shank. Proceed to lift the blades upwards to remove it from the handle This will free the shank hook from the wood. Now that the blade has been detached, you can sharpen it using a whetstone then detach it back to the handle while ensuring the hook sits in its original hole, or you can move the blade higher if it has been ground down. Please note that moving the blade should be done in one-centimetre increments. This helps prevent the creation of too many anchor points as this weaken's the wood being made. Do not worry about using adhesives and lubricants as the compression provided by the handle is enough to keep the blade in its place. Ensure that you do not apply excessive backward pressure on the font of the blade as this leads to a deformed hook. In the case that your hook is damaged in the process, reach out to your manufacturer for a replacement. By taking proper use and care of this tool, you will be adding on its performance even in the face of continuous wear and tear for up to 2x the exposed length it had when new. .
