I started a thread on Bladeforums to learn about sharpening with sand paper.
Learned about the proper grit, stroke direction, wet/dry and other good info.
The knowledge that intrigued me the most was the recommendations regarding using a leather strop. I bought a couple and glued them to 1"x's and I am off and running.
My question relates to technique. I have done the You Tube thing and read articles but will appreciate the wisdom of THR. I am getting good results but feel like I can get better. I have the green powder and have ordered some diamond paste and spray. Also please feel free to comment on your sand paper methods.
Sure will like to hear from you.
