Title: Resharpening Gereman Kinetics?? How?
Post by: KSdan on November 22, 2008, 10:09:00 PM

Hey all-

I was given a set of Kinetics a few years ago.  Used them this year for the first time.  I love them but can not get them back to the original sharpness (scarey   :scared:  ).

Any tips??  Thanks in advance.

KME Knife sharpener for sure.... set at 20-19 degrees..I use a 10X magnifing glass to make sure my stone lays flat on factory shoulder....Stroke back to factory angle with pink stone...lightly polish stroke with black arkansas.....finish with dragging backwards on leather stropp ever so very lightly.,,,,,,,,,,,,jump back....it's sharp again!

After trying many $$$ worth of sharpeners. The $25.00 Redi Edge from Cabelas gets them closest to factory I've seen.

Did I ruin them using the accu-sharp.  Got them hunting sharp but not like the original?
