Serious Edge knife sharpening

since the birth of the Iron Age. While “sanding” the blade repeatedly on the increasing grits of stone, I am realigning the molecules in the steel and pushing them closer together. This tightens the molecules to create a razor sharp edge that will stay razor sharp for many months to even a year to come! Having the freedom of hand I can adjust the angle and pressure at which I’m sharpening to adapt to European or Japanese blades that incorporate a different degree of angle and have different steel compositions creating varying strength and densities in your steel. Your knife will come back to you “sharper than the day I bought it” effectively centered in focus, form and skill.
