To sharpen your Fillet Knife with the a Diamond Steel:
      1. Hold the steel firmly in your left hand with the guard positioned to stop the blade should it slip.
      2. Hold the knife in your right hand and place it on the top of the steel.
      3. Raise the back of the blade 1/8".
      4. Moving the blade only, draw it across the steel in an arcing curve, pivoted at your wrist.
          The blade tip should leave the steel about 2/3rds of the way down.
      5. Repeat the same action with the blade on the bottom side of the steel. Always maintain the same pressure and
          angle on both sides of the blade. Alternate top and bottom 5 or 6 times.
