I have to put in my $.02 here too...............
After reading all the threads about KME, I decided to buy the knife sharpener as I am extremely challenged when it comes to sharpening ANYTHING. First, I sent an e-mail asking about which stones I should get and got a phone call from Ron with his advise.
So, I order the standard kit and receive it within 2 days. After working on a knife and a broadhead without much success, I sent another e-mail to Ron asking for some tips. Lo and behold, that night ( AFTER normal business hrs) Ron called me and coached me on the phone for probably a 1/2 hr. anyway. with his help, I actually got a good edge on a Stinger blade that had been shot into the dirt and I was just kinda keeping around for practice as I could never do anything with it----had it shaving hair----and that is a BIG accomplishment for me, let me tell you!
So............a BIG THANKS to Ron @ KME and I'd recommend his product to anyone.
