We sharpen on a hard wheel and WorkSharp's 800-grit diamond stones will sharpen the HIC Mule, so I imagine Wicked Edge's will also.

Welcome to the Spyderco Forum.

Your knife is a stainless Endura that has been reground to a full-flat grind by Tom Krein and drilled and tapped for tip-up carry on the right side--both very cool modifications. It's a keeper...

Dear Spyderwebs: Historically, the handle drop was a "go-to" opening in Spyderco's early days, when all models were tip down. The disadvantage of it is that it reduces the contact surface of the hand to the thumb and index finger and, on longer knives, requires a bit of repositioning of th...
