What is the sharpest knife you own?

please forget about BG-42 and tc., the sharpest knife i own is HAND FORGED SILVER STEEL by finnish guy Jukka Hankala.

My BM710 in D2 shaves my arm hair out of the box. I don't have a Sharpmaker yet so it's good enough for what I need for now.
 
The last one I sharpened. I've found S30V and H1 to take the best edges so far for me.
 
Mine is a folding kiridashi made by STR. Not only is it stupid sharp but its also pointy enough to go a 1/4 inch in a finger before you can feel it.
 
Back on Feb. 6th it was the BM 610, but that changed the day the RJ Martin Devastator came to live with me!:eek: :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
One of my easiest to get really sharp is one in S30V from Phil Wilson. A real cutting machine. Cutting a rolled up pce of phone book paper here.

My new Dozier Master Hunter. Bob just improves with age. Every knife I get is sharper than the one before.
 
Sharpest knife I own? Thankfully, there are a few that I own which are tied for first place. :D
 
The sharpest out of the box was the Spyderco Native in s30v. Most knives I have to sharpen out of the box to have a decent edge on them, or even re-shape the edge. Kershaw Blackout had a decent edge, I think, but I bought that knife so long ago I can't remember.

not to brag but anything I sharpen is scary, but that's not what this thread is about,...
How about the next question, ... which knife holds the sharpest edge the longest?
 
Not one I own personally, since I own a knife shop, but the "cleanest" of countless cuts I've ever had playing with the toys was from the Spyderco BG-42 Military. There are a whole bunch tied for second place.
I need a new thumb!
 
My customized Buck 110 with moose antler scales, will leave your arm completely bald in one pass. I attribute this sharpness to the special strop
I made. It is very thick leather (1/4") about 2 1/2" wide and 18" long. On the unfinished side, I used a razor blade to cut a cross hatch patern about 1/8" apart. Into these slits, I rubbed a liberal amount of 600 grit oil based grinding compound.
On the finished side, I rubbed red jewellers rouge with lots of oil to saturate it into the leather. After doing your best with your stones, about 30+ passes
on the 600 grit, and 10+ on the rouge, the edge completely dissapears into infinity under a bright light. If you listen closely and breath gently toward the cutting edge, you can hear the air molecules screaming!
 
my benchmade 9050 is the sharpest that i own with my benchmade gravitator in a close second
