I was at Lee Valley yesterday thinking I should get me some Gorbet files like Rob said , I walk by the clearance table and see a 8"x3" DMT course Dai-Sharp and a King 800 grit Japanese waterstone so , no file money left

Get a Lansky sharpener , you won't pick them stones again ! After you learn how to use it. LOL That don't take much either ! LOL

I like the diamond stones the best,no oil or water needed.

Plus super fast ! And super sharp !

And a little pricy , around 60 bucks for the kit.

Don't sound like you any better?

Getting better yes......just real slow. Lol

Still catch myself on furniture!!!!

 

[tbone75]

I'm sure I could fab up some brackets to hold a brush saw on a walker and with a nice MiniMac in hand ........

I can fix you up with the mini-mac ! :msp_w00t:

It is a very very sloooowww healing spot ! I do wonder how well you will get? Maybe a couple more of them shots will do it?

The coarse DMT sells for 77$ up here , I got it for 50$ , the finer ones are cheaper , I got the waterstone for 20$

It's hard to use the Lansky on a convex edge and my knives with a Scandi bevel act as it's own guide but If I saw a Lansky on a clearance table .............LOL

Not the first time....lol

It was less than retail.....is there a 10 inch size?????

I've flattened a LOT of Arkansas stones on that thing.

 

[Stihl 041S]

10" bench stone. Retails $150 now.

It is yellow. 8" are raised. Mine isn't.

Now I don't feel so bad. I remember wanting one for a while. Thy are the best I've found so far.

The off brand ones don't last near as long.

I have a old soft Arky stone that needs it ! Me and Dad used it a lot ! Till I got the Lansky. LOL

It was always our favorite stone. Long as you didn't let your knife get real dull,then you needed something coarser .

It's hard to convince folk to get a knife shaped and sharp before a fine stone.

That is how to do it ! Get it sharp on the coarse then finer.

Dang ! ...... Freezing rain tonight !
