There is absolutely nothing magical about the shape of Rockstead edges. Approximated clamshell convex, actual convex, I'm pretty sure most knife nuts know how to handle a convex edge. It's not magic.
Their convex approximation consists of two top secret angles--no wait, they tell you right on their website. Thirty degrees for the steep outer angles, twenty-four degrees for the wider edge angle. You can sharpen these knives because they're just knives, not magical light saber katanas imbued with mystical power. Just knives.
Nobody here in this post stated once that Rocksteads were Mystical or Magical. You're preaching to the choir, bud. Since day one I've had the mentality that no matter how nice or pricey the knife; they should be used. I'm not putting the Rockstead on a pedestal, believe me.
So, after all that rambling I still haven't caught a suggestion on how to sharpen the knife from you. All you basically did was state facts that we already knew. You haven't offered a suggestion on how to sharpen it yet.
Is your suggestion for me to just sharpen my Rockstead like any other knife? That's it? The grind and blade geometry doesn't matter? Just lay out a diamond stone and start sharpening away at it, huh? Just sharpen it like a Benchmade or a Sebenza?
