Good webpage on sharpening edges and knives.

I carry a knife on me *everywhere*, can't imagine going a day without my "little steel fingernail". Have some big_iron_knives, but my baby Spyderco Delica hangs on my neck from a former USB thumb drive's lanyard.

It stays *sharp*

Very informative Kevin, thanks for sharing. I own and use quite a few knives mostly "Buck" and I found it quite furstrating to find that perfect angle with the diamond sharpeners. Now I use a tungsteen "v", -Accusharp to be exact- and finally my knives are literally razor sharp. In the mean time I never let go of my Victorinox Swiss army knife which has been in my pocket the past 15 years and there has not been a single day so far that I did not use it at least once.
