4.Check blade balance by positioning the blade horizontally on a nail or shaft through the center hole. See Figure 4-7. If either end of the blade rotates downward, grind (remove) metal on that end until the blade will balance. The blade is properly balanced when neither end drops. Balance of a blade is generally maintained by removing an equal amount of material from each end of the blade when sharpening.
