Just imagine if that knife had bearings. Egads!
Do you sharpen with a clamp-style system? Sharpening hasn't been a problem for me BUT I sharpen by hand. I can see it being a problem with a guided-clamp sharpener.

You're working on the assumption that the little "tail" at the end of the sharpened edge represents where rest of the blade was before sharpening. That would involve a lot of time and belt wear, so a more reasonable explanation might be that it's just the transition between the sharpened edge and the tang. Some may find it visually unattractive but others would complain if Spyderco got rid of it by adding a sharpening choil.Oké what I meant, see the picture. This is more steel away then I would sharpen in 3 years. Not quite happy, also the factory edge is very rough.

I sold it anyway. Can not live with sharpening fails. If I buy something in this price range I expect it to be perfectYou're working on the assumption that the little "tail" at the end of the sharpened edge represents where rest of the blade was before sharpening.
