I looked over the pictures again and it looks like there is a micro-burr in almost all of them because of how the light is coming off the apex. At that magnification I do not think we could even see carbide tear out can we? A carbide is small. We can see chipping and maybe the tear out you are seeing is the micro-burr torn off. The left circle w…[Read more]

I too have been having trouble with my 110sv Spyderco. Never been able to make it push cut sharp. I know my stones are broken in lol. Been forever since I posted here. I am glad to see Tom and Mark posting!! Those 2 helped me so much in the past. Turns out that s110v is very finicky with heat treatment. I will not go into the details of the…[Read more]

Heck No I don’t feel like you are disrespecting my experience man! I had talked to Josh about this awhile ago which had lead me to pick up some new stones. Now that they are broken in (Ill see about that when I get the scope out) I am ready to finish off my vacation with some serious attempts at sharpening this sucker while using the scope. …[Read more]

Thanks for the links Marc! Ahh the Holidays, finally some time for sharpening and forum browsing. Interesting idea and experience on the more vertical strokes. I am glad I read it after this last sharpening session. I just picked up some new medium and fine paddles. After talking to some friends I realized mine were probably worn out. So ma…[Read more]

Let me clarify. I am used to getting my working blades to push cut paper easily when ending at my 400 grit stones. I was not able to do that with my 110sv blade. It will easily do that now after I followed the grit progression past 1000 stones. The 400 grit gives a great toothy bite that will push cut phone book paper easily. I can get that with…[Read more]

So you are saying you got your blade to push cut that paper stopping at your 400 grit stones? The edge looked polished to me which would indicate you went way beyond that.

Thanks Mark!
ill have to check out the links.
I ended up moving through all my grits on diamond and finished it off with some 13 film. Everything into the edge on downward strokes. It will shave close to the skin so I know it is sharper than it was.
I could not not get the sharpness to progress to push cut with the 600 grit stone. I hit a…[Read more]

Howdy!
I am so glad to see this forum still going! I have been away for some time working on building my shop and restoring equipment for it and learning to make blades. Plus, all that is involved with a 6 year old and new chocolate Lab.
I so enjoy using and experimenting with different steels. The newest steel I am playing with is CPM 11…[Read more]
