Well, it has been a few weeks now and I think I have sharpened every knife in the house with the WEPS :D. It is awesome! I made a video of myself sharpening with it and put it on YouTube and I just noticed that wicked edge put it up on their Facebook page! Well, to Clay and all of the other people at Wicked Edge, thanks for this amazing sharpener!

yep I have looked at the Database a few times just haven’t entered any knives, I just entered a spyderco delica 4

[Mark]

Those knives look great. The edge on the third one looks especially sharp! Good job.

Oh yea! M4 sharpens up real nice!

[Mark]

thanks! and also thanks for making the AWESOME sharpening system!

here are a few edges!B) not really mirrors but getting better as I use the diamond stones and the more they break in.

the cheap Wusthof:

ZDP-189 Delica:

The CPM-M4 is a Spyderco Gayle Bradley, the VG-10 is a Delica and so is the ZDP just in case you wanted to know. And since then I have sharpened 154-CM on a Spyderco Manix2 and whatever the steel is on one of the really cheap Wusthof knives, all hair whittling! I love it!

Thanks

oh yea, here is my post on Chef knives to go forum:

(Talking to Clay Allison)

“Post subject: Re: My adventures with a Wicked Edge”

“Really awesome machine! I just got my pro pack yesterday and since then I have been figuring it out (pretty simple) and sharpening. The stones took about 10 knives to really break in well enough to where I got satisfying edges. After that, they keep getting better! I have gotten hair whittling edges on CPM-M4, VG-10, and ZDP-189 since the stones have broken in. Also, congrats on the Accessory of the year at Blade show”

Wow! Thanks! Yea I’ve never worked with diamond stones just waterstones with the edge pro and yes there is a lot of dust coming off of the stones so I think all I need is a break-in and I should be good! Thanks

ok, so i have sharpened 5-6 knives and they aren’t getting very sharp… they will kinda shave hair and will cut phonebook paper ok but not near as well as when sharpened on my EP and I am doing the “light as a summer breeze” thing with the 400-3.5 strops…

nice, the only knife in the salt series I have is the ladybug hawkbill SE salt, great little knife. I have 2 beater spydercos, a delica 4 with saber ground vg-10 and a manix 2 but the Delica is the one I use for experimenting with sharpening, so that is what I will use first along with some of my cheap knives.

[Mark]

Cool, thanks for the tip. I have only been into knives since last October but have bought a few good quality knives (mostly spyderco). At first I was trying to decide in between a wicked edge and an edge pro, I chose the edge pro with chosera stones and I am getting really nice, hair whittling edges. Still, though, I wanted to try the WEPS because there were some things that I felt were better on the WEPS, so I got one!

[Mark]

Thanks! And most likely I will get it out of the box, set it up, and put a knife in the clamp as soon as I get it. Also I will look around on these forums for info and other cool stuff about the WE and after I sharpen some knives I will post pics! I am only 14 and have a few good knives but I will start sharpening on my beater knives just for practice/getting through the learning curve and I will move up from there!
