No offense taken. Just letting out some steam on my own learning curve.
I look at some of the knives I have kept and ask myself if I was trying to replace a crow bar or hatchet?????

I am serious about thinning some down if requested.

I have also dropped from usually sharpening at 24 degrees down to 21 degrees.

I do not do a lot of knives, but try to learn and get better as I go.

Cut on.
