Good day Gents I love my knives and believe that a sharp knife is the only knife to have. What do you guys use to get them sharp and how do you test for this? I look forward to hearing your thoughts and methods.

After setting the angle of the blades of my knives I keep them sharp with a Spyderco sharpener with ceramic blades. Quick to get the edge back, mobile and no lubricant needed.

Ek het 'n V-sharp Classic II by vriend gekry en dit werk lekker vir kombuis messe, maar vir my knipmesse maak ek maar vryhand skerp op diamant slyp stene. Die V-sharp los altyd agter op een kant van die lem 'n ongeslypte deel van so 8mm en op 'n kort knipmes lem werk dit nie lekker.

Lansky (sedert 1996) en sedert laasjaar ook die Warthog Multi Edge vir die groter lemme.

I do exactly that Tripod. I achieve shaving sharp results. The amazing thing to me is how many people are blissfully unaware of how sharp a knife can be. The sharper the blade, the less force is required, and the less likely you are to have an accident, or a severe one at least. I use a warthog classic 2 on my butchery knives but most certainly not on anything that i attach any value to. The offset of the stones will ruin a beautifully crafted blade.

You just have to get used to holding the blade upright which anyone can do (started using my dad's at age 10). If your angle is set, there is nothing i have come across that can get a edge this sharp, this quickly, and this neatly.

Got myself a Work Sharp Ken Onion edition.
Takes a bit of getting used to, but this is one of the best investments I have ever made. Quick, easy and knives are shaving blade sharp. Love it!

EK het n paar Lanskys, Warthog en een van daai Diamond sanders met die belde en n klomp stokke vir slag wat goed werk maar tot die dag wat my vrou die ding by die huis aan gebring het het ek nie gedink die hand sharpers is iets werd nie. Maak n mes so skerp soos enige ding op die mark en vat seker 10 sekondes

Het nou op mesmaker website plaaslik belde te koop gesien wat tot 400 grit toe gaan, maar nog nie diamant belt nie. Dan daai leer strop belt in die video lyk ook interessant.
