looking to get a dozen or so hunting knives sharpened for the season. Would need them back in 2 weeks. Don’t have time to mess with them and would rather pay to have them sharpened correctly !!!

Y'all are funny guys! We do them at work, but I don't do it, it's not even done here. Everything is sharpened in Houston and sent back and forth, it's a 2 week process to get them done.

I was debating those cause they sell them at work. Can you really get that razor edge like stones produce?

They get sharp. But not scary sharp. It puts a slight round over to the edge. It's great for edc knives, and kitchen knives. I'm not sure how sharp you need for what ever you use em for. But it works great for my needs.

If I want scary sharp, I used my 12" dmt diamond plates and my dads old knife clamp/holder....

discussing best sharpening methods is like politics- ask 2 people and get 2 vastly different opinions. Most work just fine...

@Az Turnings you got pictures of the knives? I have a butchers stone and other items and can put a shaving edge on them.

That was from 2 weeks ago on some knives I put handles and edges on.

Here’s what I got. Just outdoor edge Kodi pack knives. Want a killer edge on them though. It’s been awhile

I don't have anyway to do the gut hooks though I have an idea. The blades wouldn't be no problem. I have the kodi 2 pack. I shoot you my address.

One person can give you 3 different political opinions, unless it’s someone from the great state of Washington and they only think one way up there
