Thank you all for the responses, I had the chance to review all the post and links. Some god reading for sure. I also finally broke in my WE system today with my everyday kitchen knives, OMG I’ve been missing out on having knives that work. I’m seriously impressed, I took it to the 3.5 micron strop on the kitchen knives and they to me have a mirror shine. Also insanely sharp, I’d say sharper then I remember them being from the factory.
only thing I noticed is the blade edge has some small microscopic imperfections. I’m guessing that’s probably due to my technic. I’m sharpening all the knives slowly, not sure if that affects it.
