Hey guys, I did a search and saw lots of tips for sharpening and maintaining a convex edge, but I need tips on how to get them there in the first place.
I made my bark river fox river incredibly sharp in about 2 minutes, and I can't have any of my knives any other way, even my saks. I have some green CrO paste, and that's about it, what else do I need?

Thanks,

Liam
 
i used coarse sandpaper before i got my 1x30 belt sander.

just use a very course grit with alot of pressure, something maybe as low as like 60 or 80 grit, and sharpen as normal. then take it up through the grits to refine the edge.

i also used my stones with a scooping drag to round out the bevels because i couldn't wait to get to the store for sandpaper. that worked alright too. slightly less even, but not too bad.
