Trying to decide between a Kershaw Bump and a Leek. I have handled a Leek, and it is just a tad too short in the handle for me, but I like it. Also like what I have seen of the Bump. Question-- Can you sharpen that bumped blade with a Sharpmaker? I am a novice at sharpening, and don't want blade that requires the touch of a master. Thanks for sharing any experiences.
 
You can sharpen very radical curves with the corners of the Sharpmaker, when drawing the knife just rotate it so the edge stays at 90 to the hone, assuming you want a constant angle along the blade.
