Any tips on the final steps of removing the burr on S30V? That stuff is TOUGH!
I have no problems with 154CM with my method, but with the S30V stuff, I can't remove the burr. I just flip and flop it from side to side.
I can raise the burr fine and get it to move back and forth with a medium (lansky 280 grit) stone, but then with a fine (lansky 600 grit) stone it still just wobbles from side to side, even by brushing it lightly.
Even stropping on cardboard makes the damn thing move around instead of removing it, and I get a rough toothy edge that gets dull fairly quickly, instead of a nice smooth one.
Any ideas?
