I use at Berkey at home to purify water. This is the standard in my opinion.

Best PM2 and blade steel I've ever owned. All mechanical instruments require break-in.

There's the ignore function. If you can figure out how to use that without getting butthurt. :D

Something must be wrong with being a flipper if guys get butthurt when they think their integrity is being questioned if they are called flippers. :p

I'm sure you are well aware of butt hurt but what exactly would you know of integrity? You haven't displayed any here.

This isn't a cheap shot ? LOL.

Then you go an get butt hurt when you're called on it?

No, it isn't. It's a truth. Capitalism revolves around private ownership, means of production, creation of goods and services and capital accumulation. "Flipping" knives falls well within this construct.

To the best of my knowledge pre-sales don't happen in back room stores. The information is released all at the same time from the dealers. No ones has guaranteed you knife or a concert ticket.

Seems a lot of folks manage to get sprint runs judging by the photos I've seen here.

Our 3 X 8 ultra fine is what I would call a "perfect" stone. It's as flat as flat can be, surface ground with diamond grinders. it's consistent throughout the surface, it requires no oil or water to get a polished edge. It's large enough for most edges including woodworking tools. It's thin enough ...

I'm not in the business of buying or selling knives. All of my knives are users and if I do find myself selling one it's only to fund something I feel I'll like more.
