Thanks to all - for the solid advice and encouragement.
I've now started today using an old whetstone with the existing knives. That should help to hone my sharpening skills (that was Arne's fault!) and get us used to routine handling of sharper blades.
Any fancy new purchases are hereby deferred.

Poor quality whetstones have many disadvantages. One of them often seems to be that they only remove heavy metal from a blade. If you grind several kitchen knives in a row on it, you should not use your finger as a spacer to the stone to maintain the angle. The stone is wet and cold, you won't notice if your finger is also being "sharpened" and at some point you'll just wonder what brown-reddish streaks suddenly appear to be coming out of the water stone. 🙄

I got my water stones out a couple of weeks ago to tune up my knife and then a straight razor. After dialing in the bevel on the straight razor and getting a lot of experience with these stones, I went back and took another pass at the knife.
I've never had a kitchen knife so sharp before. Apparently I handle the bevel a lot? I've accidentally cut myself twice today.

So I have fallen the #knife #sharpening rabbithole for the second time and apparently the #whetstone I bought when i went down the first time is way less beginner friendly and harder to use than the less expensive diamond sharpening plates.
Ugh now I want to order one because I can't get a good edge on my kitchen knife.But I already know I will have lost interest by the time it arrives and I have time to try it out.

Big fan of the Ganzo Prosharp. It’s the only device I’ve found that has been able to properly sharpen my beloved #Kershaw Link. Have used it on several knives here (used a diff ceramic polisher and leather finishing strop) and it’s done a superb job. Cheap as heck too. 💯 recommended.

New #Ganzo #knife sharpening paddle arrived late last week. Looking forward to trying (again) to sharpen my well-worn Kershaw Link later tonight - which has so far resisted all attempts at being sharpened despite four different systems being used. If all else fails, #Kershaw have a free lifetime sharpening service if you ship the knife back to their HQ in Oregon.

I bought whetstones a few years back to help keep my knives sharp. And several years later I’m still awful at it. After over an hour of sharpening 6 knives on 4 grit levels, only three of them passed the paper slicing test.
Anyone got any proven methods to do this well? Especially on larger knives?I also remembered I left my leather strop at the workshop, so improvised with an old leather belt tied to a stool. Worked surprisingly well!

#Whetstone brook is higher than I have seen it in quite a while. With increased building on what was the flood plain, I fear what might happen if the wet weather continues.#Leicestershire #ClimateCrisis #ClimateActionNow

A bit late to this but as a subscriber to the St Michael's #Cosby & St Peter's #Whetstone #Leicestershire #Church Magazine, I am sad to see the end of its publication.
As the vicar writes 'So where do we go?' .
Local #media in all its forms is under threat.
This is important because local #journalism covers issues in our area and holds individuals, businesses and politicians to account.

Is it truly a Sunday if you're not getting out the #whetstone and sharpening your knives?

Seeing the roads shut this morning in #Whetstone #Leicestershire for the #RemembranceSunday parade. Reminds me it's 50 years since the first time I marched in the #BoysBrigade band in #Cosby aged 7. Today I campaign for roads to be shut / made safe for cycling #LTNs

I bought this #whetstone over twenty years ago, along with some Yoshikin knives. It's still going strong, although a bit beat up, however the surface has been increasingly hard to get perfectly plane - can anyone who knows about #knifesharpening tell me how best to resurface this block?
