Jon J replied to the topic SM-100 in the forum Main Forum 5 years, 3 months ago
I talked with the maker of the knife, Ferrum Forge, which is 2 brothers, 1 of whom is extremely knowledgeable about this material and he suggested that I send it in to their recommended sharpener, but I’ve got a WICKED EDGE and that’s not about to happen. So he said to make sure and keep the stones clean, cause they will fill up quite quickly wit…[Read more]

Hey guys, I have a Ferrum Forge Stinger I bought new about 2 1/2 years ago. It’s blade steel is SM-100. I guess I shouldn’t call it steal really, from what I’ve read about it. But I was wondering if anyone has ever tried sharpening this stuff. I have it in my vise and have started to find the sweet spot and then it popped in my mind, that this…[Read more]

Hey guys, I just ordered the big rolling travel case to carry my WE in, since the smaller one won’t fit my setup without having to take the vise off the base. So, if anybody is interested in the smaller hard carry case, let me know. I paid $200 for it and I’ll let you have it for $120 O.B.O. Thanks guys an have a good day.

Jon J replied to the topic Gen 3 vise and carrying case in the forum Main Forum 5 years, 8 months ago
I need to clear up my 1st post, I said that I bought a gen 3 pro pack back in 2015. I was wrong, I bought the gen 2 pro pack, but I did upgrade the vise to the gen 3 late last year. So looking at Expidia’s photo he posted, it looks as if I lay my setup on its side, as opposed to putting it in upside down as I did with the original vise, and m…[Read more]

I bought my pro pack 3 back in 2015 and along with it, I bought the carrying case with foam inserts inside. I then bought the upgraded gen 3 vise last fall but have yet to load it up and see if it will fit in my case. I am leaving out of town for work in a few weeks and would like to take my sharpener along to kill time in the motel. So, does…[Read more]

Hello Doc Todd. Good to see another okie on here, I’m in Edmond. Like the ones before me have all said, there is a learning curve and it can take as much time as you want it to. I do my sharpening in the morning, before the kids wake up and before I have to head off to work and I only have 1 hour each morning to do it then, otherwise i’d have to…[Read more]

Jon J started the topic 1500 Grit Diamond Stones in the forum Abrasives 6 years, 6 months ago
I’m wanting to know where these 1500 grit diamond stones fall into place in the progression of stones? I have the 800/1000 grits as well as the 1200/1600 grits. I don’t own any, yet, but was looking at getting some maybe. Would I go by the numbers and go between the 1200 & 1600? Also, does anyone here have a link to the rubber boots to cover the…[Read more]
