I have just achieved my first proper curl of hair from a strand of hair - I wish my camera could take a close enough macro to get a photo of it!
Even better I got the required sharpness on a piece of old belt with some Green Rouge rubbed on it. Talk about a cheap sharpener.
Even better still - I did this with my $26 Ontario RAT-1. I guess what I read about AUS-8 being able to take a fine edge is correct!
Cheap knife, cheap sharpener & I lack experience. I also doubt that my technique is all that good. If I can manage to get a knife to hair whittling sharp then it really can't be that hard for anyone to do it if they put a bit of time and effort in.
