Do you have to add any oil or water to the actual DC3/4 before you sharpen the blade or can you just put the blade to the stone without anything else needed?
I recently bought a sharpening stone with one side course and one side fine. I am practicing on all of my dull kitchen knives and so far I seem to be doing ok. I get them sharp enough to cut through oranges and and onions and stuff with no problem but I can't seem to get them sharp enough to do that paper cutting test where it slices through with no problem. Also although they are pretty sharp they seem to have little nicks in the blade after sharpening. anyone have any tips on how to sharpen?
@meandkg I just tried and with a few strokes it put a crazy edge on my axe. I don't know whether my technique with the stone is all wrong or not but this worked far better for me.
excelent review. i was having a hard time finding out the difference between the two but you just solved my problem...... do you think they are better than the spyderco 204mf tri-angle sharp maker?
CAN i USE THE DC3 JUST ON ITS OWN (NO STROP, WHETSTONE, SANDPAPERS) TO SHARPEN A HK9. BETTER STILL ANY FALLKNIVEN KNIFE. IS THE DC3 ALL I NEED TO ACHIEVE A SHARP EDGE ON FALLKNIVEN?
You can, but be aware that you will flatten the convex edge. theres a good tutorial on sharpening convex knives on our web site homepage, have a look there.

Hi Yes you add add oil, it works better, but you can use it without. When I take it out in the bush I use it dry and its fine.

Hi, yes definitely, it would work, i've used mine to sharpen my wildlife wetterlings axe. the axe stones are a little easier to work with though.

Hi renagade,
yes it would work fine, i used the DC4 for my RAT3 and it was great. I also put a DC3T on the front of the sheath and that made things easier too.
Thanks
