Thanks glad to be here!
That’s a neat tip on using a folded paper towel to check for burrs I’ll have to try that!
I also never try to remove the burr with the blade clamped on the sharpener itself.
Am I to understand that you’re removing the knife from the sharpener between every stone? I figured it would be more consistent to never move the knife during the process, but I suppose if I was resetting the angles every grit with an angle cube, and checking for burrs every grit it wouldn’t matter.
