Edge retention?

[Edzherenow99]

@justyoustupid Edge retention is actually pretty good. Better than I expected. I think putting the convex grind on it helped a lot. I do find it it a little tough for me to sharpen it, but then again I am not very good at sharpening in general. Wish I had a belt sander or grinder of my own.

l love mine, its much better than i exspected

[justyoustupid]

@Edzherenow99 Use a brick with some soap like a sharpening stone. I do that with my machete, for convexing just rub the blade in small circles with some pressure.

Shes a gem for sure! Choppers like only do better with a proper convex, great choice!
