I have some questions I'm hoping you all can help me answer.
1. For touch-ups, do you want to create a burr or are you just lightly sharpening the edge to hone and straighten it out, as you would say with a German knife and steel?
2. On my new knife, I am going to take it to the stones today. Is the arrow pointing to the bevel? I am planning on putting the sharpie right below where the arrow is to see where I'm hitting the bevel on the stone. I'm aiming for somewhere near the middle so I can sharpening from the top down to the edge.
Thanks! :thumbsup:
