This is really dull knife - after you sharpen knife properly - try with bigger paper (A4) or newspaper - more realistic test

@knowyourknife realistic? lol, the paper isnt imaginary..I kno what your saying, but 99.9% of people would be happy with an edge that cna cleanly slice through printer paper, anything that slices through newsprint is for a knife nut...but if you want "real" watch ym videos of me whittleing human hair, that puts newspaper cutting to shame

I was watching a knife reviewing and the guy said that cutting paper is the quickest way to dull a knife...is that true?? Because I found it hard to believe

[cutlerylover]

well the quickest way to dull a knife is to cut concreate, lol, but jokign aside yes paper will dull a knife VERY quickly...

[clubtc05]

Why is that..I dont get it, its paper how would paper dull a knife quickly? Btw I bought my first good knife which is a ontario rat 1, getting it tuesday...Cant wait!!

[cutlerylover]

remember paper is just a really thin piece of wood, lol...

[knowyourknife]

@cutlerylover This is really nice. I'm sure that you are knife sharpening expert and you can do all kinds of miracles with your knife but this knife is dull. Sorry.

This may be a very stupid question but, if you can dull a knife with paper, why can't you sharpen knifes with paper?

[RazorDsknives]

@cutlerylover all of my knives can do that...want some pointers?

[Gerritjoo]

if I want to test the sharpness of my knife, I always carve wood, is that a good test?

Just got the #8 Stainless Steel and a #10 Carbon Steel versions, and I have to say that the #10 is pretty nice size, the #8 tends to be somewhat small IMO.
