Got a Smooth Bolt HH and a crappy camera

Yep, those are nice, haven't used mine yet. How did you tune up the edge, hand convex or belt grinder? Did you thin it back much, or just convex out the V edge?

I'm finally getting good enough with the belt grinder to take on a nice knife like this one, so that's what I did. 120 grit, 400 grit, 1000 grit, and green compound on leather. The grind was thin enough that I just convexed out the V edge, and it came out really scary sharp!
 
Not bad pix for a crappy camera... ;):thumbup: Congrats on scoring an ETTS smooth bolt HH! :)



They were sold at the Easton (Pennsylvania) "Travelling Trunk" Show, back in November of last year.

Thanks, it's just my cell phone!
