Boom! Cool knife for sure!

I have the Pacific salt in SE and love it!

My first two spyderco's was a SS SE police and a Harpy. Cool knives!

I had a similar issue with my SE blades in the same spot. Sharpened them out and kept going just like you.

Yup.. They work great. I've been using this one for about a year.

I keep a diasharp folding dmt Coarse/fine in my bag. If I lose that a river rock will work fine.

I used a mousepad and some double sided tape a mounted it to the top of the case. So when I sharpen I just take the stone out, close the case up and set the stone on top that will give you about 2 1/2 inches of clearance between your sharpening surface and the table

Mora is my most used blades. I don't think Spyderco could offer anything to Mora. Low priced/fare quality knives. I bought 5 Mora's about 3 months ago for $41. ( 2 for me and one for each of my 3 sons.). I guess it's hard to compare mora and spyderco because they are 2 different knives all together.

Only Chuck Norris shaves with a Whale rescue blade.

Chuck Norris uses just his finger..

It would be the knife you have on you. Today it would be the SAK farmer for me.

I'm in! Thanks for the giveaway.

I think the southfork would replace any good fixed blade if your willing to spend the money. I just sold all my fixed blades a replaced them with a $9 Mora 546 and a $13 mora robust. Between the two knives I've been able to do 100% of my camp/hunting/fishing duties. So in the end, the Southfork woul...

Man you use your knives hard.

9mm is a great round but hard to find around here at least. I just bought a S&W shield .40 for CCW a few weeks ago. Was going to go with 9mm but change my mind because I haven't been able to find 9mm target loads very well for the last 2 years.

A little hawk work..

You must have an unlimited supply on cash. I sharpen on sandpaper on top of a mousepad. :)

[quote="NoFair"]Both options work well. If the convex edge is obtuse (over 40 degrees included) it will take a bit of effort before the sharpmaker reaches the [/

Agreed. The best way to maintain a convex is a strop. To sharpen I use sandpaper over a mousepad.

I'm going to consider that what I do is a microbevel by using a kitchen steel. Basically just keeping edge uniform. But I'm sure steeling over time forms a microbevel.

I don't think the abrasive wears out but the brown rods will dip over time.
