I think you’ll find as your knowledge grows and your technique becomes more refined that the learning curve never truly ends. Each knife presents an opportunity to try something different. That is part of what makes sharpening a hobby unto itself rather than just a means to an end for me. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy using my knives as well, but I enjoy sharpening more than I enjoy using knives. That probably makes me an odd fellow, but I already knew that about myself.
