Just let him know that the first knife was to whet (get it.....whet) his appetite. Now negotiate a price for your services. If he's already given them to you and doesn't want to pay for your services - I guess you have a new knife collection.

didnt get that bad here. worst i had was some one brought me a real cheap frost cutlery pocket knife and wanted it razor sharp and then complained when it didnt last. go figure. :confused:
i managed to swap it out with one fella i sharpened his axe and he sharpened my chainsaw;)

I believe there is no such thing as beer that is too cold, a woman that is too pretty, or a knife that is too sharp.
I sometimes wish my teeth were sharper though.

havent figured that one out unless they are dentures...:rolleyes:

I guess its just me, but I often have a tough time chewing meat. I eat alot of game, and it can be chewy. I watch the ways my dogs can rip apart stuff and it makes me wish for sharper teeth. I guess I'm just weird. But, I think my teeth are a little to dull for a carnivore.

I get a lot of those asking for sharp edges on those flea market crap knives. I tell em "Get a good knife and I'll get it razor sharp for ya". Doesn't hurt me selling them a knife too. The ones who don't pass out over a price tag that is,lol. Funny how some folks will spend $$$$ on a rifle and then buy a $10 knife at Wally world! But then again, I got a cheap rifle and $$ knives, so what can I say,lol.

jm, dogs chew in a straight up and down motion with little or no lateral movement. this is why their teeth are long and pointed. humans chew not only up and down but with alot of lateral movement. the more lateral movement in the chewing cycle the flatter the teeth will become. so you could develope a more canine like tooth structure by chewing all your food only in an up and down motion, should only take 10 to 20 years:D

@frenzy....i'm with you there ;)

wife doesnt bat an eye at the occasional playboy but when i get a decent catalog in the mail box and she'll break a sweat,she'll hide the check box and talk about the kids running around naked.:D

My axe can shave hair, but I only have it that sharp because I make bows with it and I sometimes clean game with it. I use a diamond sharpener on my Buck, I can get it razor-edged in seconds. The diamond sharpener only costs $5.00 and is small as a pen and lasts long.

Where can I find this diamond sharpener for $5.00? I'd be interested in having one on hand.

KT - I don't know which one he's referring to but you can purchase the Kerber diamond sharpener for about $5.00. Here's a link so you can see what they look like:

Here's a link to the Gerber knife sharpener I carry. It's not much more. It also has a groove down the center for sharpening fish hooks:

You can laugh at this, but I picked mine up at Walmart. I usually get my equipment at Cabelas but I found this cheap sharpener near the fishing area at Walmart. I don't know which type it is but it's a size of a small ball point pen and has a clip to attatch to knife sheaths. It even has a fish hook sharpener on the other side.

Laugh? Not me. I get quite a bit of stuff at Walmart. The little yellow Smiths sharpener for about three bucks. Nothing wrong with finding something that works and not having to pay alot for it.

Nor me. I pick stuff up there as well.

I use a double sided stone, One is rough other is smoother. and I sometimes polish the blade with a leather strap.

NS0201 - since you're the one using it, you be the judge. If it works for you, it works for me (Just had to say it Rick).

I would have if you didn't.

Here's another very detailed Sharping FAQ, He even talks about John Juranitch and why you should not use oil or water on a stone.

http://www.knifeart.com/sharfaqbyjoe.html

For what it's worth, I bought a new stone a few years ago to try out his idea that not using oil works better, guess what...the stone clogged up and stopped cutting after the second very light sharpening. I'm talking about touch ups, not taking a dull knife to sharp again. May work under different circumstances, but didn't for me.

I don't sharpen my knives that g in the collector boxes. But for my leather and survival knife I use a stone my grandpa gave me.
