can i get a titanium knife?
-
wow... in a world of sound!
-
@SanitySource Going forward does a much faster job at sharpening, but for refining the edge (stropping) you go backwards. It doesn't hurt the blade to go backwards.
-
@MisterBaz1 Are you saying nakiris aren't true Japanese knives? Not ALL Japanese knives are single beveled, and don't go associating Japanese knives with a single bevel, but instead, associate a single bevel with Japanese knives. But you are right about the steel not damaging the knife!
-
honestly i think the all around best edge and best blade care come from using wetstones not diamond, steel rod or whatever stones sometimes take longer but not much and the edge in my experience lasts longer
-
What should I use to sharpen a ka-bar? I just got it and it isn't very sharp from the factory.
-
What went wrong with the shun ken onion is that you steeled on the wrong angle. The factory steel has a angle beveled into the steel handle.
-
The knife he is talking about is not a true Japanese style knife. The Ken Onion knife is a Eurpoean style Japanese blade; meaning it is double-beveled. It isn't even hardened to the same Rockwell that Japanese knives are. Using a steel on the knife won't harm it.

Ya it finally got fixed with the waterstone 220 grit I believem Im just angry the salesman sold me a steel with 2 Shun's,now I know better.

I just bought a Santoku Ken Onion knife and a few weeks later it already has a dent on the blade I only honed it with a steel,can you tell me what went wrong?
I did it with 20 degree angle.

One should NEVER steel a japanese-style knife. They are made from harder steel (sometimes called high-carbon steel) which easily chips being abused by a honing-steel.
You should only use stones with a knife made from harder steel.

Thanks for replying but why do they sell the steel with it then? Unbelievable! $200 knife messed up,thanks again for the info man...Should I get German knife instead?
Bruins90210 3 years ago
Western-style knives usually are made of "softer" material which will not be damaged by a honing steel.
You could get your santoku to your "local" knife-craftsman. He should be able to re-build the knife.
