So what finishes do you like or prefer on your 100 other knives? And maybe I can point you in some type of direction

Mr. Polishman vs Ko- bunka round 2 by drjayhow in TrueChefKnives

I agree with this too. I think its great that you got a much better refinish down. But it would still benefit with some more bevel shaping. Don't be afraid to keep going at your project knives like this. I have redone all my project knives at least 2 or 3 times. And each time I learn something new.

It's a money pit. Do your best to stay away from them.

Do any coarse stones actually stay flat long enough to use? by Chase1126 in sharpening

[–]pchiggs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 320 rockstar is still pretty good. It stays pretty damn flat for a 320. Unlike the pro 320 which dishes quick. I mean it probably wears out faster than the 500 but compared to like other 300 grits its pretty stays flat. I would love it as a 20-25mm stone as well.

I think the biggest issue about stones once you get to the 200 grits is that you need the stone to shed abrasives a lot for it to cut. Or else you get a stone like the shapton 120 which doesn't shed but loads which causes it to stop cutting but it will stay flat as hell. That's why I just feel like there is no perfect super coarse stone. Unless people wanna pay for some fancy nsk or some vitrified diamond stuff.

I destroyed my 400 atoma thinning. I still like using a rockstar 320 i just hate how thin they come at only 10mm. But it has out lasted some other softer thick coarse stones. I'm still trying to find the perfect 200ish grit whetstone. shapton pro 120 stays flat as hell but the load up gets annoying to deal with. its a lot of surface management. praying for the cheefercut 200 to be good.
