been a minute. knife sharpening conversation.
my muscle memory is locked in. I set a blade to a stone and the angle is there. very little wobble.
I have a knife that is M390 steel. not a steel I will buy again. it is a bit of a challenge to sharpen. I took it camping and it didnt come back the same. ha.
I do have that Lansky system that I dont adore, but I have it. that was the secret!! the harsh diamond hones! but I FREE_HANDED it. somewhere, somehow in the past 10 years of hit or miss, I have the free hand thing down. my recent hunting trip; just me and my DVT pocket diamond deemed me the camp knife sharpener. I kept three of us armed with razorblades-like hunting knives.
I fixed my M390 and I dropped it back into my pocket. it is a razor.
I just went thru my drawers and fixed a few blades. my kitchen is wildly prepared to chop and dice.
