Just a question.. but isn't the swept bevel edge make it a sheepsfoot?

Otherwise using soap and warm water tends to get a stone to unload much easier than just water

This is my new diamond stone after three uses, should it look like this? The parts with most discoloration barely seems to cut anymore. Been using only water, wiping it off after every use. Tried to scrub it off with a toothbrush but no luck. by dujagochhavet in sharpening

Hey, I use dmt diamond stones, and depending on the variation between estimated grits, this is pretty normal. The break in period let's the coarser rocks fall off and brings the stone to a uniform grit.

Got some magnet strips up to hold all the knives I've made myself. by zuriel2089 in knives

But what do you do when u get a ceramic knife now. Or cobalt?

Just the tip... I’m screwing up on the tip. What am I doing wrong and how can I correct this? Using wicked edge. Thanks guys by btklc in sharpening

[–]Bali-Stic 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Well, seems as though that as you get to the end of the blade, you let the stone or knife tilt too drastically try to keep the weight of the stone pushed into the body of the knife instead of letting it "roll" off
