You can always do the sharpie trick and see where you are with either setting.
Save loads of time with this ^^^^.
I thought I read somewhere that most Spyderco blades are at 30.
how do you remove the sharpie from the blade after ?
By the looks of it. it does seems they are at 30 deg. I wanted to be sure so I don't ruin the knife![]()
Ditto - the 40 degree microbevel setting will work for years on any knife with decent steel. This is what I use on my Gayle Bradley EDC.The S30V version is best with 15 DPS with a 20 DPS microbevel. Almost all of the higher-end steel models can be run at 15DPS without a microbevel. The S110V model can be run at 15 DPS if you're using diamond stones with diamond strops. Lower than that, and you may get carbide tear out.
If you're hard on your knives, just go 20 DPS and forget about microbeveling regardless of steel.

I run my Rex45 at 13 DPS and it is MONSTER.
