 Re: I'm convinced my reed knife is the problem

Drew,

The following web pages pretty much remove the kabuki from reed knife sharpening:

Double hollow ground (dhg):

http://www.idrs.org/publications/controlled/DR/DR3.3/knife.html

Single bevel:

http://web.archive.org/web/20020127130203/http://idrs.colorado.edu/Publications/DR/DR9.1/DR9.1.Mitch.html

One caveat: When it says in the Rosenberg article (dhg) to raise the blade 10 degrees, don't; lay the blade dead flat on the stone (or sandpaper if your predilection is to the Scary Sharp method)

Best,

john
