Im still a beginer when using a shapmaker, and wayyyy to scared to sharpen my sebenza on it just yet. Can someone with some stick time, please post a pic of just how nice you can get the edge of your sebenza on a sharpmaker. Also include how long you have been using a sharpmaker to get to the point of taking your sebenza to it. Thanks guys.

4 years on a Sharpmaker and as sharp as when I go it. It usually get her poppin' hair after about 4 swipes on both sides set at a 40º angle. You shouldn't be afraid to use a Sharpmaker on it. Chris Reeve actually recommends it.

What is the best way to keep my Chris Reeve Knife sharp?

One important thing to remember with any knife is to maintain the edge - it is better to keep it reasonably sharp rather than let it get completely dull and then try to get the edge back. To maintain an optimal cutting edge on a Chris Reeve knife, we recommend the use of the Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker or a Lansky Sharpener. If you prefer to use a stone, the angle at which to sharpen will be best achieved at 18 - 20 degrees.

We will sharpen any knife we have made free of charge. We ask only that you pay for the return shipping. Simply return the knife (in its sheath if applicable), make sure that you include your address and phone number and we will restore that famous, hair-popping sharp, Chris Reeve Knives edge.
