Welcome over here Mindriot.
You've got a killer blade in the 711, and the FDM will be just awesome!

Worksharp,I was thinking the same.I saw one in the shop my only concern was if it was wide enough to handle some of the monster thick blades?I do like a convex edge, I've got a hhfsh I swear you could cut an air molecule in half.Have to say it's great to see so many familar names over here in the Yard,thanks again for the welcome and tips.

only problem with the worksharp is it is incredibly easy to grind off the point of the blade. I haven't yet figured out how to keep that from happening...

You have to NOT pull the knife all the way through. I stop just as the tip gets about a third of the way across the belt. I actually don't even use the guides. I have the handle clamped in my bench vise with the belt running down, facing me, perpendicular to the ground. I then free hand sharpen. Not super easy, but I used to work for a custom knifemaker, so I have a little technique down.
