There you go.

Yeah, the surgi-sharp leather belt makes it so, SO easy!

I started out about 3 years ago, and practiced on some junk kitchen knives I bought cheap at goodwill. Next, I took the plunge and did my Battle Guard, Mini Mojo, and Waki. I was pretty happy with the results!






I do all my edges this way now. So fast, so easy, SO sharp!!!





I use 3M Trizact belts in 220 grit, 600 grit, then a Norton Norax belt in 1,200 grit before going to the leather belt with green chromium oxide polishing compound. (grit sizes are from memory, I am not 100% sure if those are completely correct; but they should be close) I've been really happy with mny edges that way.

Only other thing I can say is keep practicing.

A few more glorious edges!











I also do my kitchen knives this way, and once you establish the initial new convex edge on them, touching them up when needed is even faster! I sharpen my in-law's and my dad's kitchen knives as well (a chore I did not look foreward to previously), and this makes it SO much easier!

What angle are you guys running them at?

Man, those are looking good!

I've only done one Busskin. I just used a sharpie on the factory edge to guide me through the angle. I'm guessing putting together some blocks cut to the angles you want, is a good idea.
