Hey guys I just got a brand new Gayle Bradley. It doesnt seem to hold a edge that well. I only have a sharpmaker and preceded to put a 20* microbevel on it for time being. On the one side of the bevel upon inspection with a microscope it looks like theres a type of shiny burr along the whole edge. But I dont believe it is actually a burr.
I thought maybe to was a wire edge which Ive never had but I looked up on how to remove one and tried it and didnt seem to work. I can get the knife very sharp, phone book paper slicing sharp but it doesnt hold a edge long at all. I only have exprience sharping vg-10, tiny bit of s30v and a bunch of chinese steels.
I dont know whats going on. Ive tried resharpening it 3 or 4 times and its the same thing everytime.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
