Order of KAI Official Hang Out; Good Times & Joyous Knives

[9blades]

Good morning

Now you've got me wondering how sharp I can get my knives.

Once I sell one of my knives on evilbay, I would be glad to throw in a $5 bill.



Question: If I still have a decently sharp edge, is it necessary to still start sharpening at the lowest grit stone and keep working my way up, or can I start somewhere in the middle, like 600 grit?

if the edge isn't damaged, and your secondary bevel is still at the degree you like, then yes you can start at a medium, or fine grit. Depending on the condition.

Chester, I'll gladly through some money in. When is the deadline?

I think I'm going to get one of these. jdavis highly recommends it.

I can give you moew pics, but it won't be with the blade in it. Remember I sent the grip out for warranty repairs? Will get pics when it's back though.

It looks like you are sitting in a very awkward position.

Nah, foot resting on my knee. The way all actors sit when they get interviewed by some late night show host

My foot doesn't even bend that way.

I got the HEST reprofiled last weekend but I kind of rushed through the last part because I was at my sisters place and I wanted to get it over with so I could spend time with her so it turned out "cloudy". So today I decided to start back at the 120 grit moldmaster and freehand it to even out the scratch pattern. I went up to 600 grit (One of my favorite grits to stop at. Gives you a nice, toothy yet refined edge) It has a nice "dirty mirror" edge now.

What's that tattoo of on your hand?

What's that tattoo of on your hand?

It's the Symbol of Vulcan (Vulcanus in Latin)

Thanks! I think I'll add a Tertiary bevel with the brown sharpmaker stones later to give it some mean bite.
