Hi KnifeGrinders,
I'm sorry I haven't been writing to you nearly as much as I've been reading everything you write. I'm very grateful for your presence on this forum!
It's stunning that you are able to achieve such low Bess scores on knives at 15°/side! I have a hard time comprehending how that's possible. Please, with sugar and spice, divulge the finishing step. We promise not to tell.
I do have much finer diamond compound though. In fact, I can send you a bottle of .025 PDP (yes, 10-20x finer, poly diamond, for a nice, toothy, 640,000-ish grit edge).
Just teach me how to sharpen. Apparently I'm doing something horribly wrong. My knives haven't gotten below single digits on my old school KN100 (by old school freehand... because I'm old).
I may have to break out the Edge-Pro....
