sharpening

[skidmark72]

I found a new way to see how much metal im taking off and where the actual contact point is when sharpening. Just take a sharpie and color the cutting edge only then sharpen and you can see where your removing metal. Anyone ever tried this

Its a VERY popular trick mentioned in almost every thread that talks about basic tips and tricks to sharpening.
