So the Work Sharp Ken Onion Elite arrived a few days ago, and I was advised I should let her wrap it for the 25th. My response was, at 70 years old I shouldn't have to wait to use a new toy, you just never know what might happen.... It worked.
I set it up and used the blade grinding attachment (the Elite includes the Ken Onion Work Sharp and the blade grinding attachment) to sharpen an old Utica Cutlery Chefs knife I had laying around my work area. I gotta say this thing is the bees knees! I spent 20 minutes or so on it, using three belts from medium to fine, and took it upstairs to show my bride. She was making a sandwich for lunch, and proceeded to test it out on a tomato. Son of a gun did it slice a tomato! I got a nice even 20 degree grind on the edge. It was shaving sharp, and it looked like I knew what I was doing! I'm impressed!
Merry Christmas to me!
Smooooth!
Nice Gary, I couldn't really think of anything to have for Christmas, and wish I'd thought of that I was impressed by what @paulhilborn had to say about it. I hope you'll keep us posted

This is truly sad news to lose such a good man. My deepest condolences to his friends and family. Ron will be missed by all. His signature line summed up best what “The Porch” was about.Today is a sad Stag Saturday, I just heard the news that our friend and Forum comrade @Half/Stop Ron has died .A great loss to the Forum but a worse loss to his family and actual friends.
