Thanks everyone! I think one of the largest challenges of the Gatco system is the little notch in the end of the clamp, it’d be far easier to use with out that.
Use the Tormek small knife jig along with an angle cube to make sure the knife is indeed vertical in the clamp. All the cool guys are doing it…
– you’re saying use that on the Tormek, not in conjunction with the Wicked Edge right?
I think it’s clear but to be super sure – If I were to go after the current generation of WE would it work without any further adapters / clamps?
I seem to receive a lot of these Osborne Benchmades for sharpening. I normally sharpen them at 17° and then add a 20° micro-bevel. If it’s a version with S90V steel, you could maybe go down to 15° per side and the add an optional micro-bevel a few degrees higher.
I’ve had issues with edge retention with anything less than 22 on my S30V blade which seems odd to me. Mostly light duty work with the knife too, I rarely cut anything hard.
