I've been keeping up with the discussions,and I have to say that as soon as the system comes available with diamonds and strops I'll be on board. That's how nice a rig this seems to be to me...I will admit that I'm a knife sharpaholic and am constantly on the search for sharpening stuff. I think just like shooting was my buzz. Reloading and the gear to do it replaced that buzz . Now my knife buzz, the sharpening has taken over. And I love all the sharpening systems especially the angle jig set-up's. Lanskey started it for me, but it most the time ,in ways, came up short. So after all the variations of that machine. Please understand it's become the addiction of a device doing the job. Perfectly sharpening "just the edge", simply and mistake free. No disrespect but the cost , in my case ,was not an issue. So next I threw down on the Wicked Edge, and I do mean throw down $$$. Never really got the hang of it,and would love to sell it . Then the KME caught my eye, and I have absolutely enjoyed its work. But it has it's faults . So even though I've found some happiness . Big blades plagued me. So recently I've secured one of the Russian Tsprof . Very big ,nice ,and expensive. But still from what I've figured out and spent a lot of money on. I very much like what all the Viper Sharp has to offer. Especially the value for the dollar spent .
1stmeridianIt would be a chefs blade, cleaver, and bone knife. Steak, chicken breast, and whole veggies uncooked. In no particular order. :D
Typical sizes if that means anything.
BrainFlushI just uploaded a Youtube video today discussing how to sharpen longer blades with my system. Perhaps it will help clarify. https://youtu.be/KCP3d4zQQaU
1stmeridianOh nice.
I had no idea to a degree that your system was meant more for EDC knives and not kitchen. But it's great that it can accommodate them. I'll watch it soon.
1stmeridianGood real life video ,sped up at times ,very easy to follow narrative . Then some quick food prep. Well done sir . Kept me interested ,and I learned something...
this is a product that I look forward to owning and useing someday ,when a diamond and strops ,or microfilms are a package deal . The man has taken a lot of concepts that work well,improved upon them ,and has it all right there in front of you. Outstanding ,,,Package the diamond and strop kit and I'll buy a few. I have relatives and good friends that could use one of these and the price is right
