Hello folks, I have just received back 4 blades back from Razor Edge Knives (Josh)
This first one is from a beat up Paramilitary S30V blade that I requested to be acid dipped and stone tumbled and then re-grind to 20 degrees inclusive (10 dps) with a polished mirror edge.
I intended for this one to be my heavy user that I would pull out on any situation that calls for a knife.
Well... I am so shocked when I got it back, it turned out so nice! The edge is a true mirror!!! No grid lines on any angle and believe me I tried looking for the fine grid line and they are not there! None.
The stone wash turn out perfect as well and now I don't want to use it and scratch the edge up...
I did try the edge and it's stupid sharp... I know how to make my knife sharp but this thing is crazy... It cuts anything like butter! I sliced a few pages of phone book and pretty much it cuts clean with vertical drop of blade weight; the sound is different, no resistance kind of muted. I then went on to cut up cardboard boxes, two 4x4x6 feet cardboard boxes that microwaves ship in, they are very dense type. Again the edge cuts like butter. Went back to phone book pages and it performs the same as the initial try. I'm speechless so I will let the pictures do the rest, pardon my camera skill they really don't do the actual blade justice .... By the way the new finish will look killer in digital camo handle, anyone tried bleaching G10?
