How do you guys sharpen your BAD's

I decided that with a thin BAD I would test the true capabilities of edge-holding for INFI and so I took the Edge Pro and put an estimated 12 degree primary with 17 degree back-bevel edge on it. Other than some occasional stropping on a ceramic rod or loaded leather it hasn't seen a stone since.

I made a bright decision a few weeks ago in using it to cut a fiber optic wire. Big mistake! Glass is harder than steel - who would have thunk!?! [/rhetoric] It created a tiny micro-roll in the edge which you could only see by the reflection of the edge. Some work on a smooth steel and then a ceramic rod took that roll right out.

I have a satin/black G10 from the first offering that sees more EDC carry than any other EDC-size Busse I own. IMO Jerry made a must-have for EDC-sized blades when he created the BAD. :D
