Knife sharpening?

When I sharpen a knife, I run the blade sharp edge first, like I'm carving. I'm under the impression, without knowing why, that when using a honing rod I'd turn the blade around as if I were stropping.

I had to go do it to see how I did it. Sharp edge going away,reverse knife and sharp edge coming back to you. So the steel is always pulling the edge back from the actual sharp edge.

Okay, so like I thought. Thanks.

I will bring a couple growlers and we can make it a party

I have some low grade stones that are tolerable but have my eye on the work sharp


And coargirl brothers cutlery off of i70 and colorado sharpens knives I had them do a pair of leather scissors for me good work.
And I know for a fact a tractor and a 53 foot trailer will fit on the curb. (It’s on my rush hour traffic avoidance test drive route)

Thanks! I'm off work tomorrow! Back at it on Tuesday. I think I'll run over there and drop all three of my knives off for sharpening.

Brothers did an excellent job! Picked up my knives today and I am very happy with the work done.
