EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

palonej palonej we have a new student. Ill start here with my set up. Joe told me to go to an 18° edge to make it more sexy. Hapstone R2 with shapton glass 1x6 stones.

I'm a freehand sharpener (convex), but I am genuinely curious about the kind of edges you just showed, as well as palonej palonej 's because the shoulders seem to be unusually well blended for a fixed system... and I detest prominent shoulders.

I just received a laconico keen the other week and it was sharpened on a fixed system but the edge was shorter in height then your "more refined" example. I could feel them when I stropped and it was gross. 5 minutes on diamonds with a blended convex and it's already soo much better... but I'll bring it higher yet!

I’m using this bad boy.
Slight learning curve, but pretty easy.
Added a bunch of new stones and some accessories to mine.
Very happy with it.
