It came scary sharp and still is after 1 touchup on the Sharpmaker.
Why do not learn this basic skills and have any knife as sharp as you want?
If you have any questions - I can help.
Sorry, Vassili.

My Sage 1, I can get this knife scary sharp using a "Crock Stick Pocket sharpner" and Green Rouge on a leather strop to finish the edge off. I really like S30V, it's my favorite steel. I like it better than ZDP-189, which I can get sharp. The problem is I am always touching up my edges and S30V seems to work better for my obsessiveness.
My hollow ground profile Manix 2. My other knives are Delica's and are saber ground profiles. For me, the 'sharpest knife' title comes down to the primary blade profile.
My plain edge Delica is ground to 20* inclusive with the final edge put on with the sharp maker at 30*, but due to the saber grind, it doesn't cut as well as my Manix 2.
The Manix is a 30* angle grind on the edge, and I touch it up with a pass or two on the Sharpmaker at 40* after a knight of cutting up boxes.
