I usually lick the cap before punching to avoid this. I'm waiting for someone to share a convenient way to sharpen. I heard some Xikar punches have self sharpening, and am curious how they do it. If you can recreate that part or maybe get it done with some dremel skill.

A lick does the trick for me...
Like my father before me, I will work the land,
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.
