Ken onion version…
I highly recommend!
Nice! I have a non KO version. Cheaper. Works well too.
Amazing what a mirror finish edge looks like and how long it stays sharp.
I have the non KO version to, I use it for kitchen knives and yard tools. I use a Lansky System that I use for my EDC, hunting and fishing knives.
This is the one I use, I even use it to sharpen my shaving razor …
I prefer honing over sharpening. If you hone it often, you rarely need to sharpen, which takes metal off the blade.
My sharpener came with a 6000 grit belt.
I usually sharpen a blade no more than once or twice a year. In between sharpenings I use a steel as required.
I cut cardboard quite a bit, using my old diamond sharpener I was having to sharpen every day, now once every three days.
Wow! I get why you went the way you did
If you do a lot of cardboard cutting (why is cardboard so tough on knives?) I would look into a utility knife. When the blade gets dull swap it out for another one. They even have some really cool EDC or folding utility knives if that’s your thing.
Steel is a sharpener, too, unless it has no ridges.
add the “Blade Grinding Attachment for the K.O.” and it’s even nicer. Great tools.
although, Shun VG-MAX is one hard/“tough?” steel to reshape the first time around.
It’s my edc right beside my shield, I’d rather pull it first is my best excuse
Go Vols
I’ve never had good luck sharping a knife, hell a butter knife will be shaper than any knifes, that I try to sharpen.
I have the original version. It does a great job on sharpening. One of the best purchases I’ve made.
