Some of those are vintage English Buck Brothers, the only BB's to buy. Not today.
But I'll be damned if I can get that kind of edge on a Henkle. I was blaming the knives. These are not the Pro series.

i dont let mine get that dull to begin with.
but i have gotten lazy. real lazy. i can get a crazy toothy edge simply using my spyderco sharpmaker. i just touched up a Wustof yesterday and it was falling thru my garden tomatoes. i just use the bigger grit, and i dont move any finer, and i dont strop anymore. the slight tooth just saws thru things.
