I second all voboe and d-oboe said. The other thing is if you don't want to take it to a professional knife sharpener, take your knife and grind the heck out of it on a diamond stone. If you don't know how to correctly regrind your knife, start a new string.

I take out old "great ones" that I've saved and critically analyze them to figure out why they were so "great". Then play around with some blanks messing around with the same concepts.

Finally, I'd just start using some new knives if all else fails. Nothing like a brand new rigotti double beveled and a brand new albion to scrape up a great reed.
