Hi Jeff, I had the same problem with my Native (440V). It came pretty darn sharp from the factory (I don't know if I could shave with it). However, my attempts to reprofile at 15 degrees did not garner any performance gain; rather, I made my knife dull as a butter knife! The solution - buy some low-...

Question about steels
Specifically, a question about the current popularity of several of the Benchmade offerings with the M2 "high-speed" tool steel option. Is this a "steel-of-the-month" craze, or does this steel really offer something over some of our favorite steels, i.e., CPM-440V and VG-10? I ho...

Yep - the hole was there. It looked just like the Delica - same blade shape, same hole, everything! It was probably about 9:30 EST when I saw it. I don't know if it is a regularly scheduled show, but they did have another show coming on Sunday, I think. But it was scheduled for very early in the mor...

Spydie ripoffs on HSN!
Last night I was flipping channels and came across the Home Shopping Network. Two guys were hawking a 100-piece knife set for $180. Several of the knives were dead-on spydie ripoffs! If I got them all, it looked like a delica ripoff, a military ripoff, and a harpy/merlin ripoff. There were ripoffs o...

ROTFLMAO - rolling on the floor, laughing my a** off (about your post where you draw the beast!) It is a great little knife. Unfortunately, I haven't got much to compare it to, since I've only used one other knife (Sebenza - hollow grind with BG-42). Hence, I can't compare the Native's cutting abili...

Thanks Clay. That's actually the hardest part for me - knowing when I am finished on the corner of the grey stones. Slicing paper easily - does that mean to hold up a piece of paper, start from the top and slice with a minimum of pressure? If that is the case, I have reached that step. Catching on t...

Clay - I have the plain edge. Good to hear that I haven't messed up too bad yet! Although I don't think I quite have the technique down yet. I just don't think I'm getting the edge as sharp as it could be. I'm using the 40 degree setting, and following it for the 20 strokes on each side but the resu...

Sharpening question
I saw another post over at Bladeforums that indicated that the Native is has a single-sided edge and related that to ease of sharpening. What is a single edge, and is there anything special to do when using the Sharpmaker? How would you tell that it has just the single edge? I've already sharpened m...
