Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

I use a "Edgemaker Pro" . Lo cost, simple ,two sets of rods & works great on all of my knives. Sometimes I use a "EZE Lap" diamond stone .Also works well ,but you have to watch the angle. I finish with a small ceramic rod. All pretty small money & with some practice you can put a good edge on your knives. Works well on my Cryo ,by the way.

All the Best,

i have the same sharpener!! mine is from the first or second year they came out. it is in a nylon sheath..not the plastic case it comes in now.

mind me asking, what FOUR sets of sticks you have? i have the brown coarse, and the white finer WHITE sticks..what else do you have? finer than what i have?

i have gotten to where i put a square of paper towel in the hole and then jab the stick in. holds it firmly. i seem to get a better edge that way. i think my holes have enlarged all this time.

 

oh, in my hunting pack i carry an ACCUSHARP. i find it is the best way to get a good edge back on a knife with bloody hands. i would break my sharpmaker, plus it is too heavy.

 

my new baby

 

thats a nice knife. I want to get the boker version but just havent pulled the trigger whenever it is actually in stock

 

I've started to EDC it in uniform now and I'm loving it, even if all I do is cut 550 cord and shit with it lol

 

haha I don't think I would edc it, probably just leave it in my truck for camping and what not

 

That's the chunkiest folder I've ever seen.

 

I paid good money for this blade I'm sure as hell gonna use it! Lol

 

oh yeah I would definitely use it, just don't think i would get good use of it as an edc since I'm at school my folder does fine as an edc which is partially why i havent gotten a boker ridgeback yet

 

use it as a club too... lol

 

This my new Buck Knife with push button spring assist.

 

Didn't know they made those, where'd you pick it up?

 

Kershaw Cryo 2 blackwash. Got it on Amazon for $33. Not too bad of a deal. Is surprisingly sharp right out of the box.

 

That is pretty sweet looking.

 

Talking with protech about my new TR-3. The blade has developed hairline fractures after a week of ownership. Hell, I've only cut the tape off of a box with it so far.

Protech answered their phone, and after I described the issue they asked for pictures of the blade. This is what I sent them.





They stated that they had not had a blade fail in this manner before. I will let you know what happens next.

 

That sucks. Here's hoping for good service.

 

That's all I'm asking for. A simple exchange will be fine by me. Here's the part that has me a little worried though.

This is from Protech's warranty page.

The knife is legal in Texas, as far as I can tell, so I'm hoping this won't be an issue as I'm neither military or law enforcement.

I ordered the knife from BladeHQ, not directly from Protech.

 

that sucks..
maybe contact BladeHQ?

 

Yeah, did that. BladeHQ won't accept it back for exchange due to the fact that I put the knife in my pocket.
