Knife sharpening

Yeah, you should really go to Maintenance for this one.

My personal opinion? There are lots of much less-expensive ways to sharpen your knives. But if you're one of those guys who can't sleep at night unless he gets a mirror finish on the cutting edge, then the Edge Pro's for you.
 
i rekon it's worth knowing how to freehand sharpen on flat stones. that way you can sharpen a knife anywhere with a wide range of improvised equipment. for example: using the bottom of a coffee mug if needs be.

all it takes is the desire to learn and a small amount of practice.
 
Edge pro #1.
At least my opinion. Its worth every penny :thumbup:

Get the #4 kit and never look back.
 
I've found I get the best results with a combination of products.

I have no freehanding skills, but if I need to reprofile an edge or a knife is seriously dull, I can get it reasonably sharp with my DMT Aligner. For whatever reason I can't get it to the level of sharpness I want using the just the Aligner though. After I set the edge with the Aligner, I'll switch over to the Sharpmaker and hit it with the white rods or whatever they're called.

I used this process on a knife I made over the weekend to go from no edge at all to hair-whittling sharp in about half an hour.
