Thanks guys! Funny thing is I didn't really know about Spyderco until I started looking for a better way of sharpening knives. I'm terrible at wet stones and grew tired of my knives only being sharp in "places." I watched a Youtube vid of the Sharpmaker and instantly ordered one from knifecenter. Then thought, what else do they make...I own 5 now in around of a month but have now drawn raised eyebrows from the wife so know I have a hidden shopping list for later :)

I actually think that the Sharpmaker is the gateway Spydie for many folks. :D

Thank you! Shortly after I had to order the ultra fine and the diamond rods too. Never had a polished edge before :D
