Normal usage with sandy/grogged clay should tend to sharpen
tools on their own, eventually wearing them out.
To sharpen tools, though, hold the tool as you would in use,
and note the angle the tool would contact the pot. Mount
the tool in a vise, and use a fine file at the angle just
noted.
For instructions on making your own trimming tools, visit my
