Thanks for the reply, Clay. I ended up doing another one this morning just before you replied. The factory angle was at 30 on this one so I just cleaned up the edge using all stones, the non beveled side I set to 25 degrees and after removing the burr I stropped a little at those angles. I got it pretty sharp but still not as much as the v-grinds I do.
Next time I get an Emerson I will be sure to try your method.
