wish i knew how much work it'd be to do on the medium stones on a sharpmaker!
the factory edge just didn't cut as well as i wanted it to for utility, plus sharpenning was a pain, since i lack the ability to hold an angle on a regular stone.
so i set about just stroking and stroking and stroking, to an almost pornographic extent.
i've mostly gotten the inside of the curve, but the belly and the tip just don't get as much pressure, so they're going a lot slower. it'll be a 40' edge now.
