This one reigns supreme over my pocket lately

Cool. I just realized that after drinking DT for many years on draught, I have never seen a bottle of it!

two nice ones

I started reprofiling the Ronin. Not quite finished, but I did completely grind off the factory edge.

Got a little impatient and gave it a quick 15 degree microbevel on my sharpmaker, then took it to my ultrafine stone, followed by a strop.

WOW. Just wow. This thing demolishes anything it touches. I thought it cut well with the factory edge, but with this edge it chews up cardboard like it's a joke. I stacked 12 layers of corrugated cardboard together and push cut through it with ease.

Crazy thing was after breaking down about 15 large boxes it still caught hair above the skin. I was expecting maybe scraping arm hair, not popping it off effortlessly. Gonna be fun putting CTSBD1 through its paces and seeing how the edge holding is at thin angles.

Plan to finish up the bevel this week and take some photos outside. This was a quick indoors photo before I left for work.



Whenever the edge is done I'll shoot a video showing off its abilities.

I've actually had fairly decent performance from my Manix 2 LWs with CTS-BD1. Awhile back I used one to finish breaking down a large appliance box into tiny pieces. Yeah the edge didn't last quite as long as the other two knives I started with (M2 LW S110V & GB) but it lasted a lot longer than I expected. When it finally started to not cut very well I gave it a quick touch up on the SM and I was back in business.

Thank you! (Sighs) I'm still trying to figure out how to post my pics here. I'm only 28 but sometimes I feel so behind on the times.

When you upload to imgur, it takes you to a page showing you your image along with other functions like delete your image, browse other images etc.

If you post that link here, others can click it to see your image, but it won't show up in the post itself.

On a PC you can right click the image on the imgur page, and select "copy link location." On mobile, long tap on the image until a menu pops up, and (on android using chrome at least) tap "copy link address."

This link takes you directly to the image and nothing else. Put that link in the brackets and you're all set.

:spyder: Mike Draper titanium folder. I love it. It is all ways in my pocket. Don't leave home without it.

Busy day of working on my barns means a pocket full of tools in addition to this gambit of edged items.
