It can take a bit of getting the hang of it. Start with the blade in front of you with the teeth facing away from you. lightly step on the blade with one foot and hold the blade at the top with one hand facing palm out (palm away from your body). Twist the blade counter clockwise while sort of folding it over on itself so that your hand ends up palm-in and the blade is in three "loops". Wear a gardening glove to cut down on scratches, and keep your nose well away from the blade!

Don't feel so daffy man.. I am sure everyone has done something similar to that in the past... I can remember a time... Oh never mind... LOL... At least you had the smarts to ask others....

Thank you I got it. I am not going to unwrap it to practice. I will practice by trying to stuff my house cat in a pillow case. Next time I will wear more leather and a hockey mask. Thanks much Dale
