Ever have a blade that you got nice and sharp that you tend to use another knife to keep that one as an “Edge Queen”
I recently got the 2200 / 3000 diamond sharpeners and I usually finish with them before stropping on leather with .5 micron DMT diapaste. I am looking at getting the WE microfine ceramic sharpeners and the 0.125 cubic boron spray for stopping, but I am probably getting carried away.What stones are you using on your wicked edge to get the knife to cut free hanging paper towel?
This right here. Scars to prove the method is effective!I’m low-tech and not very skilled at sharpening.
The three “tells” of knife sharpness:
1. Band aid
2. Butterfly Bandage
3. Sutures
I’ve heard rumor of a mythical fourth “tell”, but it involves a severed finger in a bowl of ice.
I hope it stays mythical.
