Been following the r/chefknives subreddit for about a year. Now coming here for knowledge about rabbit hole that is japanese natural stones, as well as more in-depth discussions of knives, sharpening, and setups. Excited to learn more!
Hey, thanks for the welcome!
@HumbleHomeCook I remember using an Arkansas natural that my grandfather gave me when I was just a kid. Unsurprisingly, results weren't stellar; I had no idea what I was doing. I've been thinking of trying again for my pocket knives, as I have gotten better at freehand sharpening. Most of them are modern super steels (S30, S90, CPM-3V, etc), and I've heard even synthetic whetstones are very slow.
