Re: Using the sharpie
Welcome in the forum! ... the sharpie is I think one of the most usefull tool that don't come with the WE.
Im a newbi and i've just done a Giesser messer it was pretty usefull to check out the edge angle that the previous sharpener guy did on it.
It's an edition that is not sold anymore. the asian style knife ... one side bevel like shun i would say.
The guy that sharpen it have done a 20° bevel each side and its with the sharpie that ive found that.
finaly i've reprofiled it to 13° one one side and juste grind the burr on the other side... its more like it's suposed to be i gess.... ( i have wrote to giesser and ain't got any answer)
So ... put a couple of sharpies in your kit.... you will love it!

Re: Newby question!
Thanks for this fast answer.
The uneven bevel is out of the box. So factory made. And ill have a good amount of steel to get on before reprofiling the blade... Might take an hour or so.
And don't worry im counting my strokes and trying to get the bevel as center as i can bare eye.
Good night every one.

Newby question!
Hi every one.
I have a newby question for you.
Is there any reason why on a SOG fielder i have 2 different bevel angle?one side is 21 deg and the other is17.. Pretty similar to the SOG vulcan in the knives database.
Its kindda tricky to find the proper angle and position in the vice too.... Not clearing the edge at one place... Getting on the sholder at an other place... Grrr lhehehe.
. Keeping my learning curve going up!!
Thanks for your answer if i got some!

Re: Me and my story! Let's get ...
Hi! My name is René. 34 years old french canadian from quebec city! I was looking around for sharpener on the web when i fall down on this marvellous system! Tadam xmass arrived and i got one from me to me!! Finally having my henkel knifes cutting better than new.
Also getting some shapening jobs from co-workers.
I will later put some pictures of my packaging setting for my new stuff to carry around.
Im also trying to find on the forum some answers for the life time of the diamond stones.... I think the breaking time is less than 6 knifes...im I right? Because if i look at my stones the middle is really smoother than the edge on the 100 and 2000 stones. Maybe ill finally found the answer on the forum...
Have a good day or evening ...it depends where you are in the world at this moment.
Keep it sharp!
P.S. sorry for my english. As i said ..im a french canadian
Me and my story! Let ...
