I love seeing that last round of pics jyl! You can clearly see the bead that forms on the edge when you hone one side more than the other. The trick with getting a REALLY sharp edge (yes, even with your pig sticker knife) is creating that bead, then snapping it off. If you can do that, then you can make the hairs on your arm/face literally JUMP off when you shave. THAT'S what "hair popping sharp" means. I can do it with my kitchen knives as well as my daily carry "tactical" Benchmade knife. Oh...it's D2 tool steel, very high Rockwell hardness, and it won't go dull quicker than a softer blade, despite what my Aridzona friend might claim.
