I just got a DMT EF Diasharp stone. Previously I only had a DMT F stone (the polka-dotted 6x2 stones). With the F stone, I could get the knife very, very sharp. It would grab my nail with the slightest touch and make the cleanest cuts on paper.
Now I get this EF stone. I use the same sharpening method, and the edge won't grab by nail worth crap. And it won't cut paper if its life depended on it.
Any ideas as to what's going on?
Thanks.
