1>> guys what are you talking about? What drunkards? The knives can be removed from the knives. only wet sharpening and only on Japanese stones. Except for the Japanese, nobody understands this.
2>>only "dry" sharpening on diamonds from DMT :)
3>> guys, do not argue. Nevertheless, the best sharpening is on a moist iron wood brush, squeezed with fine crushed sapphire, removed from JLC or PP glass, carried out in a full moon on the top of Matterhorn. Significantly improves the performance of Appenzeller during the sharpening process. On the thin end - you can whistle Wagnerovsky "Flight valkyrie".
