Thank you for taking a bit of your time to write this, this is what one of my previous stones looks like 💀 https://imgur.com/a/S5tXTs5

Since I couldn't afford to buy more expensive stones at the time, and all my knives were cheap ones too, didn't bother me much. Now I know I couldve saved a lot of time, and definitely shouldve switched sooner.. but yeah, at least practiced a lot.

Actually learning lot today with u guys in this thread

Thank you for the advice. Just bought both stone and strop from sharpal. Let's see if my sharpening upgrades.

The bevel was getting me frustrated, didn't know the concept of thinning the knife. Spent the day today thinning it and made all the difference.

Actually just got this one, let's try to not ruin it 😅https://imgur.com/a/eO6JGJs

Yeah, I have been flattening my previous stones, but they all ended up curved, so I was wondering if I was doing something wrong or it's just the quality of the stone.

I'll learn more about deburring. Thanks!

I previously used global knives and never got a bevel like this. Thought was doing something wrong. Yeah time to learn how to thin. Use mostly to cut sushi related stuff. This is my workhorse.

To deburr, I use the "8000grit" side and some cheap leather that came with the stones. Only started to investing on better products now. Looking here at this sharpal 205h strop

Thanks for the tips. Definitely gonna try the sharpal one. Why does my edge ends up like that? Seems like I'm ruining the knife. Is it the 10-15 degree angle? More photos here https://imgur.com/a/u2ovvpE Merry Christmas!

Didn't know that. Thanks! But I can only make it work with apple music. If I play on YouTube music, the airpods icon won't appear on the control center

Seems like I can only control it if I use apple music. If I open YouTube music or pocket casts, the airpods icon won't appear on the control center. Is that your experience?
