Morning dogs. I got my first piece of INFI last night a SS4. However sharpening it is proving tricky. The initial edge wasn't to bad so I sat down with my sharpmaker. I got the edge pretty bity with the 600 grit stones. After that I went to the 1000 grit stones to get the edge real sharp. However it got duller and way less bitey feeling after using the 1000 grit stones??? I can slice cut paper and push cut it with the back of the blade edge however I think the belly is to obtuse still. But it getting duller feeling on higher grit stones mistifies me. I had some trouble getting a wire edge could that have been the reason I was getting a bite feel on the rougher stones and I just need to work the edge down more? Sorry for the book. Haha.

Steeley, I took my WarDog from a semi-cutting paper convex to a hair popping V Grind in nothing flat. Man that INFI sharpens easily. Possibly the angle is just to blunt and you need to thin it down some. Just an Idea.

Possibly the angle is just to blunt and you need to thin it down some. Just an Idea. Thats what I was thinking. I didn't think INFI would need some special stones or anything to get it sharp. I think I will get my 320 grit Ruby stones out and where the edge down some its pretty obtuse like Sykco knives can come. How are you today Randy?

I THINK he is on vacation or at home with his folks. I do seem to remember him saying something about going on a trip.

Morning guys. This is my first post in the dc and it looks like this is the place to get to know folks better, I was never sure and didn't want to intrude.
JYD #136 My mother told me if didn't have anything nice to say then don't say anything but that never stopped me before.

Hey CAz, there isn't any intrusion on DC! Just jump on in. We may be in a conversation and not say howdy for a minute or two, but NEVER be afraid to jump in. The more the better it is!
Well my workday is about over so I am gonna call it quits and head for the home front. Y'all have a good day and hopefully I will be back on in an hour or so.
