 Re: Playing on the Tip/Reed Style

I bought a Jende 15K-the Ferrari model and it is the best knife I have ever used. I am sorry that I only bought one.
What I liked about the Jende knife was that the blade is perfectly straight. When I order a "new" knife, I regrind the blade so that it is straight. You can check the status of your knives by putting the blade down on a sharpening stone and holding it up to the light. If there is a ragged line of light showing between the knife and the stone it needs to be reground. Some "new" knives I have are like rocking chairs, the blade is so uneven it's a joke.
A note about sharpening: one method is not the only way. Get yourself a diamond stone, they restore the edge quickly and without the use of oils and mind-numbing grunt work. Crocksticks, which I use all of the time work to maintain the edge but not to restore it. Japanese water stones and ceramic stones are also great sharpening tools.
