Hi,
Just got myself a Goko knife. Like this one.
http://www.This Site Not Allowed Here.com.com/gokogyuto210mm.html
Out of the box it was extremely sharp but not on the overall edge so I put it in my Sharpmaker Spyderco like with all my other knifes, carbons as VG10. After 30 or so strokes with both brown and white stone the whole knife got extremely..dull! I ran it with the 15/15 degree angle.
I noticed it sounded more than normal when i ran it over the stones and it lost lots of metal, more than I'm used to.
So, what's going on here and how to fix this? Shall I just continue with the sharpmaker. I have tried another 50 swipes but still I'm having a tough time getting through a normal paper compared to all my other knifes that is extremely sharp in my point of view.
Can someone who knows more explain what might have happened? :eyebrow:
