Has anyone done Sandi Grinds on ESEE 5?

I really like my esee 5 but it goes with a sabre grind. I sometimes fine it slightly bulking when I am doing carving and such. I was wondering has anyone tried putting a sandi/convex grind on their esee 5?

Welcome to the forums!

I watched this video a while ago. The guy re-grinds an ESEE-5 to have a saber convex grind. His name is "virtuovice" on youtube.

A tad off subject...Virtuovice claims that the Fallkniven F1 is not a true convex blade and I was wondering if the experts here would agree? I just ordered the BK16 and want to get the F1 as well, but I'm wondering if I'd sharpen them the same way, or does the F1 sharpen with a strop and compound? I have no problem using the diamond/ceramic stone like the DC4 by Fallkniven or a strop...I just need to make sure that I'm using the right stuff. Sorry for the noob questions, but...I'm a noob!
