I DID IT!
on: October 20, 2017, 08:17:03 PM
Yes!
I did it!

It took me hours and hours of work.
Alot of stress
Alot of frustrations
Alot of smurfwords
Alot of retries

But I did it!


I finaly got my 108GAK and 50's Soldier hair shaving sharp.

I was able to do so with my more modern knives on a freehand Opinel stone from Lombardia, but not on my older knives for some reason.

Turned out that I was able to pull it off on my straightening steel alone.

Took ALOT of strokes but I sensed that it kept getting better and better.

So to anyone else struggeling:
Try a different technique or method and it might turn out that it works better then anything before! :tu:



Ok, not worth it's own topic, but still...

You keep covering your eyes while handling a sharp knife. You're bond to cut yourself, silly!
