Hey folks...have a BM Grip 551S (full size; half-serrated)...am getting a sharpening system for Christmas, and the one I'm most likely getting offers edge angles of 29*, 25*, 22*, 19*, 15*, and 11* - so to all of you who know WAY more than I do about knives and edges and angles...for my 154cm Grip, what angle do I want?

Thanks!
 
19-22 What system are you getting?
 
It's a rather inexpensive system I saw in the Cabela's catalog...I'd much prefer to get a nicer system, by Spyderco or Lansky, but that will come in due time.
 
I am guessing that he is getting the gatco sharpener. The only problem is the limited selection of stones in that system. It actually kinda looks easier to use than a lansky since it doesn't require you to screw in a guide rod to the stone. Or am I not understanding how the gatco works.
