That is cool!!! All of my knives except the gerber are 'V' edge so I've been looking at the EdgePro Apex. it seems to me dummy proof (or ME proof).

But now I've got a DF coming to use for a chopper, so the OC will end up behind the truck seat for emergency use only

I have been having trouble sharpening my recurves. It is difficult to keep the media "straight" to the sharpener!

Sharpmaker does pretty good with the Blur, but probably because it's not a very big knife.

I carry the Sharpmaker with me to work every day, and take care of all my deputies' knives for them. I usually sharpen 1-2 a night. Keeps me in practice and them happy

One of my friends bought the Sharpmaker I haven't used it yet but I want to get a mirror polish on my blades and the Sharpmaker won't get that fine. You also have to hold the knife the sharpener properly and I don't like my chances.

I know that I'm leaving something on the table, so to speak. I don't think I'm getting them as sharp as I should be
