I can't decide if I should get this book or not. I read everything on the Sharpening Made Easy web site.

I have read the BF sharpening FAQ

I have also read The Razor Edge Book of Sharpening and The Complete Guide to Sharpening.

On Steve's web site it reads:
Updated equipment reviews and other information is available to people who buy the book. If you bought the book and got to this page by mistake, please e-mail me for the correct URL.

Is there some super secret web site that only the owners of the book know about?

I know the book is preaty cheap. I would just like to hear from other forum members that have read it. Do you think I will learn anything new from reading Steve's book?
 
If you have read Joe's FAQ's, Steve's sharpening site and followed most sharpening threads here, while some issues are clarified in the book, for example there are pictures of the marker-on-edge technique, there isn't a whole lot of new material outside of the techniques for sharpening odd objects like potato peelers. I would however still recommend the book, for the simple reason to support Steve considering the resource he has provided in the content of his website. It also makes a very good gift as it is a much condensed version of a lot of net-info and is an excellent introduction to sharpening.
