I’ve thought about taking some sandpaper to my edges to get rid of the burn first, and then finishing, but at a certain point I’m putting so much extra time into it that I’m no longer saving myself much by using the laser, you know?

Yep!

Though I do find that hitting the edge with the scrubby side of a sponge helps to remove a bit of that char and odor.

Also, @jbmanning5 recently shared a tip for using salt to clean edges; I intend to try that soon.

Looks like one user has already tried this with leather, with good results:

Also, I used salt yesterday to clean leather out of the forge before burnishing. Worked great and is keeping my burnisher much cleaner.
