I couldn’t wait any longer. I really wanted the WEPS directly from Wicked Edge but I canceled my order but only after ordering the WEPS from one of their distributors Kay had referred me to. The distributor was great [www.Oldawan.com], although he couldn’t meet the sale price I got in August (AUGUST!!), he did lower his advertised price. LOL, so I’ll get in 4 days via FedEx. I actually toyed with the idea of a next day delivery for almost $100! Dang, I could have done this weeks ago.
I am having Thanksgiving with some friends, the husband learned to cook while deployed in France and Italy when he wasn’t flying, who has a set of French kitchen knives that seem to be made of very, very hard stainless (trying to use the Spyderco crock sticks were an exercise in futility — didnt move any metal), and will bring the WEPS (and bandaids) to get an edge on his knives. Right now, the spines and the edges are nearly indistinguishable. I just could’t bear watching him carve up what should be an excellent turkey (being raised on his farm with some ducks and chickens) subjected to essentially a pry-bar of a knife!
Ahh, will start learning on some of my less expensive knives. As I learn, will go up in quality as far as the knives go. Time to review some of the excellent Youtubes out there. I plan to post some microphotos on the forum in a week or two.
Some one moves up in line, Kay doesn’t doesn’t have to read my whiney emails, and I get my WEPS in about about 96 hours. Everyone wins.
Time to buy bandaids, lots of bandaids!!
