I didn't see it, if it was mentioned, but BuhBuhBuh Shawn was on the latest Knife Perspective Podcast... https://www.knifeperspective.com/kpp048/

Definitely don't have the time, or attentive span to invest 2.5 hours, but cheers for the link, Budda!

Big Brown Bear, baby. The model is a live brown bear, that will be big. Hence the wait time in rounding up all these bears in Golden.

He's a steel and edge junky. He's DeadBoxHero here on the forum, Big Brown Bear on YouTube and is Triple B Handmade if you want to buy a knife from him. His knives are glorious and we're all really excited to see the collaboration he's doing with Spyderco!
He's got a great YouTube channel here... https://www.youtube.com/user/shawnhouston/featured

Shawn's videos have taught me so much on edge stability. Probably the most important item to me now when considering a steel. Not that a steel would necessarily stop me from buying a design I like. However, when choosing my rathers, edge stability it what I'm most curious about. Thanks to Shawn.

What steel do u think is most stable & best for an edc knife for cutting everything from sandwiches to zipties paper cardboard rubber hoses. I just watched a really good vid he has on youtube to sharpen knives. I cant sharpen knifes for the life of me i dull every knife worse everytime i try to sharpen! I need alot more practice but i dont want to ruin my good steel knives but **** steel knives could be reason i have hard time sharpening knives too.

I by no means am qualified to answer that question. May be better for a separate thread on that to get replies from the many experienced members. I will quickly say in my use I really like K390 for EDC. However, from a sharpening standpoint (I am very inexperienced), I like the VG-10 and SPY27. Any edge you lose or damage in my experience is a joy to bring back.

The sharpmaker would be a really good option. Or, if you're not far from the north east of France drop them to me once almost all of them are dull and I'll sharpen them ;-).
Not much sea here so I'm gonna guess you live in the west.
:respect In the collection :respect : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

The sharpmaker is definitely a fantastic starting point for learning how to sharpen.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Whatever it takes to get you there, the Sharpmaker is an invaluable investment for all new edge junkies.

Even after progressing through the Sharpmaker and on to guided systems or freehanding, the Sharpmaker holds its own and has a place...

I recommend it to all new knife enthusiasts or those serious about using/maintaining their blades.
So it goes.

Absolutely. It is perhaps the best tool around for sharpening serrated edges.
