Since getting into Bark River knives, I've had to learn how to handle convex-ground edges. I'm certainly no expert but this system has been working very well for me. It's the same one recommended at the BRKT Society site with a couple of personal modifications.
I use the 800 wet/dry if the edge has become dull or I've dropped and nicked the knife (yeah, that was dumb!). Then I'll go to the 1000 and finally 2000. If the knife is just lost its razor edge I'll either strop it or go to the 2000 and finish with the strop.
I started stropping my edges using very, very light pressure. Another forum member recommended a little more pressure, which I've begun doing, and my edges are even sharper now.
I hope this helps somebody with their convex grinds.
