Re: Work Sharp Pro

At the drive in movies, gonna watch that Tom Cruise movie..... I was able to fully sharpen my big kitchen knife. It did an excellent job. Very sharp. There's still a bit of a learning curve in just working the stones- but, overall it's really easy & very nice. I'll try to get some pics up asap....

Do you guys think it would be foolish to get a standard Military with a new one possibly right around the corner? The first...
