It is amazing what you notice when you start to sand. I did not realize just how many little gouges in the blade surface were there from the file.

I have spent about 2 or 3 hours sanding and still can see I need more work.

As for blade thickness...I need a much better caliper. Going to check out what is available at some of the knifemaking supply houses. The small one I got at Home Depot just is not goog enough to measure the edge of a blade.
Send pics, Bro...
