My results with the Lasky haven't been as good as mine with a wet stone, but I've been using one since grade school. The Lasky is easier to learn, and gives better results to some of my hunting buddies who never learned a wet stone.
The previous poster talked about 18 and 21 degrees, and I'm curious if he meant total or per side? What I do, and no it isn't the only thing that can give good results, is 25 degrees total with the coarse stone, and 30 degrees total with the edge. It seems a good balance between useful edge and edge life. What angle to the rest of you strive for?
