New to knives. Got an Endura 4 at first it was really sharp, then I overdid it on the Spyderco Sharpmaker.
I kept alternating through the 4 steps but then wondered if maybe I should avoid the course stone.
It will barely cut paper now, and I've been using the fine stone for an hour now.
Help, how do I get sharp again?
trial and error. youve got a lot of steel you can fuckup on before the knife diminishes to nothingness
also, spyderco uses a steeper angle than most companies. if that might be what caused you to brick the edge

Did you read the instructions or just watch a you tube video on the sharp maker?
I've found that 20 strokes on the flat side of the fine stone isn't enough, do 100 strokes for a razor sharp edge.

Do I have to alternate 1,1,1,1,1...
Or can I do 5 on each side before I switch sides?

I watched half the video but the only thing missing is 1980's music while the chick is being double penetrated on the table

How bout you post in the knife thread.

Any thread over 100 posts is shit.

That's sad OP. I can take a dull knife and 5 mins sharpening on the bottom of a ceramic cup, I can easily shave with it.

you can hone on a ceramic cup, but i know for certain you are lying by how sharp you can get it. less youtube, more practice

Who /gough custom/ here?
>>29929733
the shilling is so fucking hardcore.. no one is gough custom.
What is the difference between the Endura and the Delica, is it just blade length because I just bought a Delica and do not know if I got ripped off. Also, any sharpening tips?
>>29932281
Endura is a bigger version of the delica.
Delica has a thinner blade, makes it better for slicing.
That's all.
I'm OP and have both, para2 coming in mail, but I can't figure out for the life of me how to resharpen them.
Glad I'm trying on $60 knife instead of $200 knife.
Turns out the sharp maker video leaves out a lot of info. Such as its better to sharpen while standing.
