 Re: Bevel edge or razor blade?

I use large (3x8") diamond stones (400 and 1200 grits) to sharpen my knives. I find that these diamond stones don't easily curve since the diamond grit, not the stone itself does the sharpening and great pressure is not required...so they work real well for beveled knives. Any double bevelling tendency can fairly easily be reversed with the 400 grit if necessary. For the double hollow ground, I typically set the edge with the 1200 grit stone and then keep it going for as long as I can with the Razr Steel to extend the life of the knife.
