Hey guys. Tried to sharpen my junglas on a wicked edge tonight and had difficulties. One side was 25 and the other was 20 on the straight and 32 towards the tip. How do I find a happy medium where both sides will take one setting? I don’t mind if one side is 23 and the other 25 but having to hit two angles is inconsistent. Or how would I go about making both sides the same angle without making one side more acute than the other? I’ve tried on other knives to do the same angle on both sides and they sometimes don’t turn out even.

On YouTube, look up Oldawan Tools To Stay Sharp - Finding Sweet Spot. You may find it useful, good luck.

Not enough info. What Wicked Edge system are you using? And I don't know anything about the Junglas. Maybe the YT videos will help.
