Re: Wicked Edge Sharpener

The Spartan Horkos is a bad ass blade dude..You will love it.
Ask the if they will sharpen the upper swedge...Even if its just the last few inches.
Would make the blade into a perfect combat fighter.

The WE will give you plenty of edge with 1600 and a strop

Well, still only have the 100/200, 400/600, 800/1000, and 5um/3um stones, but my results are improving! Worked on polishing my SMF some more tonight:

Re: Wicked Edge Sharpener

They are still backordered through promotive 4-6 weeks. I actually bought the set up for my Henckels kitchen knives. The factory edge lasted about 5 years. I've had them resharpened twice since then, but they never lasted as long. I'm hoping with this set up I can get them back to factory sharp. And yes they only cut on wood blocks.

I stopped at 1000 grit, as I though that stropping a kitchen knife would be taking it a bit far.

Re: Wicked Edge Sharpener

You can get them much sharper than they came from the factory.

I can drop a plump tomato on my wife's cheap 1 man Henkles and they just fall thru the knife.
The premium knives should take a better edge.
