BK9/BK2 Sharpening with the WorkSharp KO!!!

Hey all my Beckers were feeling jealous that my SOG Trident and Kershaw Kuro got new edges, so since they're my babies I treated them well!
This is all using a WorkSharp KO with 120# , 180#, 320# , 800# , 2000# , 6000# grit belts at a 20 degree angle.
Well here we go!
Here's my bench and belt holders!

Time for the fun, here's my BK2 before sharpening.

After 800# grit, shaving sharp.
Proceeded to 2000# and 6000#

Hot damn that edge is purty!

That poor poor edge after all that hard dense wood I've been abusing it with.

My first time setting it in, I thought it was hysterical how BIG this blade really is compared to the WorkSharp.

After the 800#, who says you can't do small detail work with a BK9? :P

I got an even BETTER edge on the BK9, look at that freaking mirror Shine!:eek:
I could shave with the BK2 using the BK9 as a mirror!! Haha.

Thanks for checking out the thread all!
If you have any questions feel free to ask, also let me know how well you think I did!:D

Ohhhhhh boy, you will not regret it.
Definitely get the Ken Onion Edition, there's a set of belts on amazon for 40 bucks that are AMAZING that work with it.

Do you have a link for the belts?

Thanks!
 
"that's what she said"

Nice review :thumbup: I still want one hah!
 
I'll probably get this one day to do 15/15 degree reprofiles and use my Sharpmaker to put on 20/20 microbevels.
 
Equip2endure made a review of that and Adam mentioned that the work sharp doesn't reach the edge where it meets the choil. Did you have the same experience?

In the video I explained how I went around it, by putting the ricasso on the guide.

Absolutely Great video seeing how its used makes it a lot easier to understand than just reading would,
Very good clear camera work also.
 
Been eyeing the original Worksharp for awhile now. May just save up a bit longer for the KO version. Anyone have experience using both? Wondering if it's worth the extra $70-$80?

Honestly I feel it is, thicker belts, better guides, better speed vontrol, more robust, blade roller, rotating sander to use on tools and such, snd easier to find after market belts!

I don't have either yet but the Ken onion version with adjustable speed, more angle choices and wider belt seems well worth the extra money. It's the version I'm eventually going to buy..

Posted to slow. But even more advantages than I knew of.
 
Truth the wider belts and angles alone are a huge change, mrknot if you look up in youtube the differences people always say it's worth the upgrade
