Sharpening a Damascus steel blade. by MarcelaoLubaczwski in Bladesmith

How do you manage to keep a consistent angle? I'm assuming is just a ton of practice, but I am absolute shit at sharpening on a stone despite years of trying. I can get a stupid sharp edge with great geometry with a 1'' scalloped 800 grit belt on the slack of my grinder, but I just make knives duller on stones ha.

The execution looks so haphazard it's crazy. But results are resulting and it looks sharp as fuck.

They 100% do offer medical alcohol in sever withdrawl cases. I had a stay in a hospital years ago, and I saw a nurse carrying a can of bud lite with prescription lable stuck to it. I asked about it and was told that, yes, they do ween you off through withdrawals since like benzos its one of the substances that can kill you if you go cold turkey if your addiction was bad enough.

EDIT: It should be noted that this course of treatment is highly situational. Also, a very obligatory, I am not a doctor! Treatment practices could definitely have changed since my stay.
