Sharpen Sebenza S35VN and S45VN

[94knifeguy]

Yes. I asked them by email and they still recommend the Sharpmaker. I have an original Sharpmaker that I use for kitchen knives only now, and a current Sharpmaker with fresh rods/stones for my knives with harder steels. I get your point about less expensive options because I'd rather put my money into knives rather than sharpeners. I'll keep looking around for now as my Sebenzas are pretty new and the edges are still sharp. Thank you!

Do you have a set of the ultra-fine ceramic rods? I find that adding them to the process makes a big difference in sharpening S30V and Elmax, right before stropping. (I don't have any S35VN). So, in order would be the gray medium rods, then fine ceramic, then ultra-fine ceramic, then strop.

Thsnk you! I sharpened this Sebenza w/S45VN on the Edge Pro Apex not my Sharpmaker. I went from 400 grit all the way up to 3000 grit polishing tape. I've been going back and forth with Edge Pro's customer service and can't say enough good things about them. Very, very helpful. I don't have the ultra-fine stones for my Sharpmaker, which I still use for touching up an edge and other knives... I should get a set.

I have a set of the Ultra Fine sticks for my original Sharpmaker and they do make difference. I procrastinated for a long time because I didn’t think they would make any real difference.

I am sorry that I didn’t buy them sooner!

I'll definitely give them a try. I've got a growing shopping list of sharpening tools Thank you!!
