I wasn’t able to get under 18 degrees (as per the angle gauge) with this particular blade. I think the steel on this one is capable of taking a 15 degree edge quite easily. (CTS 204P)

Interesting. I thought there was an ability to go to 13 degrees per side with the new arms and riser.

I ended up getting a pretty decent edge on this knife. I could have stropped it more but it’s OK for now. I will definitely be ordering the new arms as I can’t get the degrees down enough on this particular blade and I’m sure I will find that out on other knives somewhere down the road.

Thanks for the replys. I will level the knife out and move it back some more to get the tip right. I agree with the repeatability comment and if the bevel changes slightly I’m not going to worry about it too much. Some things you just have to accept I guess. I’m going to order the Pro Pack II arms this week though as the thought of the angles not being identical is just about enough to put me over the edge.:blink:

About how much further back?

Thanks for the replys. The only ceramics that I am familiar with are the ones made by Spyderco and they are totally different. Do these ones wear?
