Think it would be any use for us knifenuts?

Now that is cool! I looked all through their site but didn't find it though. Your link just goes to the home page for 'fine tools'. What's it called, or what heading was it under? Not 'sharpening tools' as one might have expected, nor 'miscellaneous'.

good find Lucky Bob.

And yes, that would be of use, for sure. It would sure beat using a sharpie and trial and error to find the edge angle.

It's not under "measuring and inspection instruments" either....

Great knife knut pendant.

I think I got mine from Garrett Wade.

Took some pokin', but I think I found it. Tried to post a "url", but no luck. But.......I did a search on the site under "gauge", and it's listed as a blade bevel gauge.

Here as well:

Does seem like it would be a handy "widgit".

BAH! I had bookmarked a ton of similar links, too!

Just another lesson, kids, on why frames are BAD!

What you have to do to get a link from a site like that is go to the button for the page you want. Then, instead of clicking on it, go to Ctrl C and copy it. Then the link you paste will take anyone directly to the page you want.

 

[Lucky Bob]

Yeah, or just use "copy link"... it's not that I don't know this stuff, it's just that I wasn't paying attention!

Oldfogey... badboris.... got the links. Thanks. Reaching for credit card......... NOW!
