The traditional knives are the keenest no doubt. However with good HT, and proper grind a symmetric ground blade will get very thin and keen edge.

Well it took a little longer than I thought lol, but I got my Arks.

I got a new Spiderco in S30V, and am enjoying playing with it but... My Nani's kept micro chipping the edge. Drove me nuts lol.

So I thought the Arks might help - and it did! Weird steel the S30V is.

Can't wait to try my kitchen knives on these stones.

Thanks for all your input guys!!
