Bryce at TLE does a great job sharpening.
Nice guy, good communication, and very accommodating. And - perhaps most importantly - does a great job!
Full disclosure - I won two free knife sharpenings as part of a contest he sponsored here on the forums, but these comments are unsolicited and untampered. He would have had to offer at least one more free knife for that...
Including some pics. Please note that the mark on the first pic is not a wire edge, but just some schmutz that I did not wipe off. I starting cutting before I was able to get my camera out. You know, the camera on my phone in my pocket - that's how excited I was to see how the edges performed. The spyderco was almost nib when I sent it for sharpening - had a very decent factory edge on it. Bryce measures 18 degrees on one side, and 24 degrees on the other side - then evened everything out. Absolutely perfect now!
