How can you tell them apart. I mixed my Kangaroo strops up with the rawhide and really can’t tell the difference

How do I get the bevels to match? Do I have to take all the steel off the one side to make them both 13 degrees?

Ty, I need to know how to proceed with a knife that has a 13 degree bevel on one side and a 16-17 degree on the other. Must I sharpen the 17 degree side down to the 13 degree to match?

If your holding the knife in the position to cut and blade is sharpened on the right side is that a right hand knife or left hand?

Thank you very much. When you say edge leading you mean your staring you pass from above the blade and come down passed the heal?

So it feels crazy sharp but after scoping it I see all the chips. Side profile is very defined. I progressed up to 1200 grit
Questions to you guys that work magic how would you proceed?

Maybe I can buy a adjustable switch and cut it into the cord to turn down the speed

So I have a bench grinder which has low and medium grit stones as well as several buffing wheels. Does anyone use bench grinders for repairs or polishing?

I ordered this lubricant thinking it would be a good lube for knives. All natural, non toxic. Problem is it smells like wintergreen snuff. Reminds me of the time when I was young chewing it. Not sure people would want their knives smelling like wintergreen. What’s your thoughta?

Since I cannot get to any topic room other then the main forum I had to post here.
So I was thinking after I earn my chops and I get better at this I would like to sharpen knives part time for some extra $. Can some of you post what you charge so I know where I need to price my services?
