Just purchased fro REI. Just cut paper with it.
Sorry, I have to run into town after making this post. More to follow.
These are the best close ups I can take with my phone. Initially, I viewed thru my lupe and it appears very scratchy and one part in particular seems really rough. Comapred to a 6 year old Buck 112, which has never been sharpened, the 112 is smooth with no visible rough edges.
Although I do have the SHARPAL 162N Double-sided Diamond Sharpening Stone and leather strop, I've never sharpened a knife before.
Any feedback is appreciated.
