I usually purchase knives by whether I feel like I can sharpen them myself. I guess that is why I am a fan of the old yellow handle Case knives.


This is my philosophy as well. Doesn't take much to get a yellow handle case sharp.

I just bought the Lansky diamond kit with an additional sapphire stone, ultra fine stone,leather strop, clamp mount and a bar of green oxide(?) stropping compound...I'd like to have tried the newer crystalline diamond stropping sprays but that sh!t is outrageously expensive @ $75.00

I got the Sharpmaker nd used it for the first time last night. I spent 20 mins on the rough stone and 15 on the fine. Sharp pocket knife hat shaved half my thigh last night and most of my forearm today at work.

I needed to spend more time with the rough stone (it's not that rough) and get a super fine stone to finish with.

My dad my FIL will both be getting one or Christmas this year.

I wondered if anyone used the Lansky anymore. Very idiot proof way to sharpen a knife and does a great job at it.

Sounds like a great opportunity to learn how to do it with a stone and a leather belt.
