This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEA curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Tool Care.

Once you learn to sharpen knives, you feel invincible.  Until you see that dull steak knife and realize you don't know how to sharpen a serrated knife.  Let's learn that skill so the steaks can be more easily consumed!



Minimum requirements:
  - Sharpen a serrated knife (steak knife, bread knife, etc)
  - Use a round file, ceramic rod and/or diamond rod

To get certified for this BB, post the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - Close up image clearly showing dull knife edge
  - Sharpening under way
  - Close up image clearly showing sharp knife edge
