119 Special

[dunc5]

I've just purchased a 119 ( and a squire ) and it it should be with me tomorrow , I have a question about sharpening. I can get my 110 really sharp using a spyderco sharpmaker and I wondered if the 119 shared the same blade profile and angle as the 110 and can I expect similar results ?

Thanks

Congratulations on your new Bucks. I use the SM for all mine at the 40 degree setting and they sharpen just fine. Since the bevels are applied by hand you might see some variation from knife to knife. Some may require a little reprofiling to make the 40 degree setting but that's not uncommon with most knives, Buck or otherwise.
