How to Sharpen Darts

Sharpening darts is a slight misnomer. You do not actually want your dart tips sharp and pointy, but rather rounded and smooth. This prevents darts from bouncing off the wires on your board, maintains a strong dart tip and protects your board. However, you do need to use a dart sharpening stone on your darts when they become flat or develop burrs. Sharpen your darts to take out any burrs that may occur and keep the darts rounded and smooth.

1.Check your dart tips for burrs. Run a nail up and down each dart tip and feel for abrasive burrs. If burrs exist, you'll need to sharpen.

2.Lay the steel tip in the concave section of the sharpening stone.

3.Slowly rotate the tip on the stone.

4.Check the tip to make sure that all burrs have been ground out. The tip should be smooth.

5.Dull the very tip of the dart. If you have sharpened the dart to a point, round it out slightly by holding the dart vertically and pressing the tip against the sharpening stone. Spin the dart in a circular motion until the tip is rounded.
