Nice job. Better than I could do. If *I* tried that, it would look like crack-addicted monkeys beat on it with a hammer.

Looks good WB. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I wonder what that blade would look like stripped? I love the cammo but I am curious what it would look like stripped with those vertical bevels. Good job! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That edge looks good to me, WB. The important thing is, how does it cut? Those HG55s are very thick and narrow, so a very small edge angle is not possible. They can be made to cut, though. Your looks like it will cut. I had to do a little work on mine, too. But it cuts now. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Busse/HG55LE004-1.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/Busse/HG55LE007.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

well came in from workin on the farm all day and had a pleasant supprise waiting for me on the door step. It was a busse HG55 with jungle shadow camo. Let me tell you it made me from feeling tired and worn out to full of energy. now when i got it, it didnt hade a very sharp edge on it, so i ended up reprofiling it and might have gone too far. give me your option on my sharpening job, i know its now great and know where near Horn Dogs work bit i think i did a decent job. ![[Linked Image from i690.photobucket.com]](http://i690.photobucket.com/albums/vv264/woodsboy28/jakespictures2096.jpg) Conrats. Nice surprise! By the way can anyone tell me what color that Spec Ops sheath is? Tan or Coyote?
