I'm a Newbee so maybe you know this. Take the nut off, bolt is treaded so don't try and beat out. Clean the sides up on rough grinding wheel. Use your scissors back plate, set at 60 or 50 or what ever.Do it free hand and you will get a nice even grind. Now use the side of the wheel to do the flat sides! Nice and sharp.
