throw away what ever kind of file you have now because is sounds fucked up.

Get either a pansar file which has big teeth and takes off a lot of edge or get a normal file.

If you want your edges even sharper that get a dimond stone.

try https://www.artechski.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=SFNT&Store_Code=A they have cheap good quality shit.

Don't sharpen the underfoot but put it on the edge and push down lightly and go up and down.
