    Is the knife stainless steel?

    Could be that it's sloughing metal rather than creating shavings. Stainless is a very different animal to sharpen especially if it's a softer grade.

    If you want a cheap test blade have a look for something in carbon steel. Opinel make a range of carbon pocket knives that will take an 8K edge without a problem.
