Sharpener

[plumber_bob]

I assume S30V is gonna take me 3 or four times as many strokes as AUS8 did but I'm willing to try it on them.

I have now idea about what you said right there.

Learn me sumpin, please?

My Benchmade 940 is S30V steel, it holds an edge for a long time even in abusive use. Unfortunately it take a while to sharpen when dull. Key to it is never let it get full full, it take the better part of a hour to restore sharp.

I have a Kershaw Blur S30V and I just ordered a Benchmade Mini Griptillian(Studs not holes) in it. Since I started pocket carrying strong side, I have trouble working the Delica weak side. The left hand don't like the Spidey Holes.

Ok,... yer still speaking french to me.

I offer knife sharping and I use a Tomak sharping system I bought off Amazon years ago

It's taken me (3) 1-2 hour sessions to re-profile this Min Grip blade. Because they are hand sharpened at the factory, it was sharpened unevenly. The downside of the Sharpmaker is the fixed exact angle so the blade has to be re-profiled to that perfect 20 degree opposing angles before it can be maintained. S30V is a very uncooperative steel to that, even with the diamond sticks. We are finally there though. Even under a loupe that angle is now perfect. WORTH IT!
