I’m new here. I’m the same name on a few other forums as well.
I have 16 Benchmades and 15 Spydercos but my taste switched more towards Spyderco. I stopped buying Benchmades after their MAPP enforcement last year.
I have a DMT Aligner, SharpMaker and Ken Onion WorkSharp. I wanted something more.
I started saving Amazon gift cards and finally took the plunge. So far, I really like my WE. I got the Field and Sport Pro.I often travel with my sharpening stuff and the big base wasn’t for me. I also added an angle cube and the 1200 / 1600 ceramics. And a 30X lighted loupe.
I’ve been breaking in the stones on some older knives. I haven’t sharpened any of my good knives yet.
[quote quote=“mark76” post=24005]Welcome to the forum, Aquaman! Enjoy your WEPS! There’s quite a few people here who started with the DMT thingies or the Spyderco Sharpmaker.
There’s a wealth of information here and a bunch of friendly guys. So please don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions.[/quote]
Thanks. I had one little hiccup that was quickly resolved by the other members here.
I also learned how to mount my Spydercos. I just finished sharpening my Native 5 lightweight and I couldn’t be happier.
