How is everyone sharpening their new Para2? I know the edge pro works great but what are the other options? The Sharpmaker wasn't doing anything for me. I ended up using the sandpaper and strop from my new KSF complete sharpening kit.

How is everyone else keeping theirs razor sharp?
 
If it's not dull to start with the Sharpie trick on the Sharpmaker set in the 30 Degree slots should be close.

Also you could just use a strop to refine the edge some.
 
Mine is more than 30. Had to go up to the 40 sadly. After I used the sandpaper it does good on the sharpmaker. My first super steel and its a weird creature. I'll use something different to cut insulation next time.

The key is not to let them get dull and you will be fine, touch ups are easy...

Oh yeh, I just followed the bevels it came with on the edge pro. They were at just under 40 degrees. I don't mind because it still cuts well enough and I want to avoid edge damage even at the expense of some cutting performance.
 
Did you all have much trouble with burrs? I had one but once it was stropped it got pretty sharp.
