I read about how you need diamond to sharpen them. I have a DMT 10" bench stone*. You think that ought to do the trick? You know, in the year 2020 when it needs touching up?



*just got it and really, really like it. I still do fine tuning on my old school hard arkansas** but for profiling and utility, a DMT may smack your checkbook around a bit, but I'm sure you'll know where your money went.






** no school like the old school - got this hard arkansas from my father over twenty years ago, and have yet to see its equal. Did you know these are nearly mined out? If you want a stone you'll still be using when your grandkids are asking you why your knives are so sharp, now's the time, my friends...
