ivory .... yessssss it is sweeeeet and is my fav...
It was really was sharp.:thumbup: Woody...You did a good job.It cuts through
them mater's real good.I like the way it feals in the hand.That blade
is very pointed too.Did you use the stone or the lanskey to get her sharp?
Thank you -- usually most of my blades, all I need is to touch it up on my stone (shown in this thread #85), using a standard bevel. Started with that, however from the tip to the first third was not as sharp as I like. Probably from all the wallpaper I removed. So, I touched up the forward third of the knife with the Lansky diamond taper. Then hit the stone again for a final edging, and smoothing out the rough edge the diamond taper left. (bought that primarily for the serrations) I'm a little obsessive about having a sharp edge on my knives

Nice looking 'mater in that picture by the way! Was helping the wife last night cutting up some peppers... the kitchen knife wasn't cutt'n it, pulled out the trusty 110 sliced through those peppers like crazy.
BTW, i think decafe dave mentioned that CJ Buck may want to look at the rubber bucky... dave?
