I don't use strops anymore (except for sometimes just polishing a bevel before I put on the final edge) but I have experimented with course bevels and then use my 16k stone to very lightly hit the edge just to clean it up some. It's not abrasive enough to remove or really alter the teeth left by th...

I have polished bevels on my light users, but for most of my users up to 600 grit on the wicked edge and then a few passes on a 3.5 micron strop and its a very toothy edge with good retention and sharp as ****!

Wish I had better photography skills! It really is a nice mirrored edge. 20 deg each side on the wicked edge and progressed through grits: 100,200,400,600,800,1000, 1200, 1600, and stropped with 5, 3.5, 1, and 0.5 micron paste. http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/g410/rygleason/null_zpsfcc0aa5f.jpg

I love my spydies, but the hinderer XM 18 3.5 is an amazing knife. So is the CRK sebenza 25. Both of those get a ton of pocket time. I recently picked up a ZT 0801. Full titanium scales, framelock, flipper, and bearing pivot! A heck of a knife for its price point! I also picked up a custom TI clip t...

They came on the knife (bought it used). But they are from halpern titanium. They are the thin g10 scales. I love the color as well :)
