17 Degree Angle

[Pack Rat]

Was just brousing the threads and reading about trying the 17 degree angle on a 110 ION.

Got me to wondering if any of you have tried your 110's on the 4 different settings on a Lansky clamp and what your results have been??

All I have ever used is the 25. I may be in a rut and need to get out more..

Sorry I use either the 17 or 20... never used the 25 or 30.

Gets em sharp, thats all I care


I lied... I may use the 25 on the 119... and Goosers' nighthawk!
Works slick!

So how do those angles hold up for what you do with them?

Great so far, but I havent had the chance to use it on a deer or anything large. Mainly just miniscule tasks like cutting packing tape
Or rope, etc. Once you lose the factory edge its hard to really tell how long an edge lasts (for me anyway) I usually judge by if I can clean a whole deer without resharpening etc. Sorry I'm not much help!
