About 6 weeks ago I started sharpening my neibors knives for knife money. I live in a highrise apartment building so the amount of money this brought in was surprising. This moring I had a gentleman call me about sharpening a handmade chefs knife be bought in Japan. When he dropped it off I was immediatly surprised. I know ZERO about kitchen cutlery but this knife amazed me. the blade was a very tight patterned damascus and the handles a very dark reddish wood. while beautiful and very well made with great craftsmanship the edge had been pretty beat up. I figured I'd try a new strop idea I had so I went to sharpening.

My sharpening system consists of.
150 grit EZ Lap diamond hone for destroyed edges
220/1000/4000/8000grit Norton waterstones
Leather Strop .50 micron paste

After Puting a mirror poslished edge on it I went to the leather strop with .50 micron paste. It came out beautifly but had no bite to the edge. I tried a new Strop idea i've been toying with. I had made a SILK strop out of 10 layers of 25inch by 3 inch wide silk sewn together at the ends and loaded with 1 micron paste. After 2 minutes on the silk stop it produced an edge like I'd never seen. it was mirror like but somewhat toothy and sliced like a demon. I went to the kitched and was able to shave the skin off a tomato!! No more leather strop for me! I'm stickin' with silk.
 
Craft/fabric store the silk was less than 20 bucks and my wife did the sewing for me. You wouldn't believe the results. JUST DON"T USE IT ON A STRAIGHT RAZOR it's too course.
 
Now that you have achieved the perfect edge,it's time to test it.
Lay the knife on your wrist and start cutting .If we don't hear from you again,we know you did a good job.(and weren't lying as usual)

Troy,

While it's perfectly normal to dislike (loathe, hate, etc.) people who belong to this forum. . .personally. . .I find your type of posting, in this thread, to be distasteful, in bad form and is in no way considered conduct becoming of a true KNIFE KNUT !

While I don't care much for #16,452 (or whatever he, she or it calls itself these days) I make it a point to steer clear.

In actuality. . .what you're doing is trolling !

My posting in this thread should no way be conceived as sticking up for #16,452 nor taking sides.

You're doing exactly what he's doing. . .trolling.

Evidently, you don't want to be better than what's its name.

Troy,

I completely understand what you're trying to attempt. Not too bright. . .but understand. What it does do ~ places you in the same class as the troll that you're trolling.

What a shame ! :(
 
No problem Troy. You are gone.

Anyone else want to play?

Dennis, you have crossed the line here as well. You've gone to actively encouraging people to flame you - and that tells me you've lied since the beginning.

I warned you about being on thin ice. I warned you not to make the same mistakes. I gave you the opportunity make amend. You pay me back by spitting in my face with this Troll avatar and such. Nice to see that no good deed goes unpunished.

Kevin
