Took me lots of patience of on and off working on it with diamond rods. Stopping every time I felt I was rushing go on for a while slowly but steadily, and I'm very pleased with the result and kind of proud. I only had vg10 delica to practice sharpening with, let alone re profiling. Vg10 was doable after some time, S110V is a tad more of a chore and after hearing about all the discouraging posts about this I was sceptical but I intend to keep learning and improving this hobby and all that comes with it so.. As for the delica incline at the top; I have no need for a needle point and neither did the stone floor at my garden apparently - and read taking the top down like this will strengthen the (still bloody sharp) tip as well and I feel like I really made this pm2 my own. After de stressing the edge and going through the motions with 15° reprofiling, with a 20° micro bevel as finishing touch. I can attest that it's just as sharp as when I got it, if not a wee tad better.

Now I know I can handle s110v, I'm also confident I can handle most other steels with (increasingly higher) proficiency later! Perhaps some of you find it so so but I feel all those cuts and Hours paid off and I've achieved my first and primary goal so..
I love my pm2, there are many like it but this one is mine! I will.. Ahum. Lemme know what you guys think about it.

Looking good and congrats! If you can handle s110v you are good to go!
Thanks man! I'm glad it worked out so well. I used to scared of scratches and all the likes, but the more you carry and get user marks, the small things you do for the blade, etc, really make it feel like YOUR Knive and buddy! Haha!

As much as I appreciate the G10 and SS version, the extra weight kinda kills the "magic" for me (as elena86 put it).

The orange VG10 is still my most carried, though I do carry the ZDP189 pretty regularly. The others live in various backpacks and jackets - The H1 lives in my swim shorts all summer.

If I had to pick only one, it would be the orange VG10, which I have two of :D
