Looks like you have a typo on your website. “tries to make” versus “tries make”

Maloon’s Knife Sharpening Service tries make everything convenient and as easy as possible

This is what I use for small knives and other knives that are not too long.

IMO, there are two things that I believe are must haves that will help you make sure you are really creating a burr.

– A permanent marker to mark the entire edge (heel to tip). I personally like a red marker better than the traditional black color marker.
– A magnifying glass to make sure that you are fully removing the red marker. I have a
UltraOptix 7X Aspheric LED Lighted magnifier (same model that Tuffy uses).

Edit – had a link to a video that was not good.

Here is a pic with PP2 arms without the PP2 riser. My original arms are 1 1/4″ shorter than PP2 arms.

I use a pencil eraser

Guess I must be missing something. Seems you would never create a burr on one side if angles are different.

Thought that WE’s main attribute was to be able to get the same angle on each side.

[Ted S]

Seems you have sharpened a lot of knives. Have you replaced any diamonds/stones or are you still using the original set?

[Ted S]

Thanks for the video. When you sharpened the Calphalon serrated knives, did you sharpen on only one side or both sides?

What is the brand name/model of the magnifier you use?

[Ted S]

I have noticed the exact same thing. I don’t use bar markers and only use angle cube to make sure both sides are the same.

The only thing I can think of is the that blade is moving/tilting in the jaws. I haven’t used chamois, leather or tape but will start to see that now to see if that helps.
