Greetings all!

I was chatting with Richard J and he said I should come on over and join this forum.

I set myself the goal of learning to sharpen in 2009. Along those lines, I've got a sharpmaker (added ultra fine rods), a JRE Industries strop bat, and a warthog multisharp, along with some various DMT stones, and obviously slot gadgets (smith abrasives pocketpal, etc).

Knife wise, one crkt, one spyderco endura (they'll be more... oh yes), a few Cold Steel Bushmans (excellent value), and a cold steel recon scout.

I'm looking into a harbor freight belt sander 1x30" and/or paper wheels. After talking to Richard and Steve (sharpening made easy author), I'm leaning towards buying the wheels first.

Vocation: computer geek (Cisco CCNP/CCDP/CCSP, Novell CNE, comptia Linux+, Microsoft MCSE in nt 4/2000/2003, blah blah, and a little mroe blah)... easier to say computer geek.

Hobbies: preparedness reading and doing (everything from out door survival to studying EMT skills)

Welcome to the forum. RichardJ is a good person. I apologize for my lack of enthusiasm but it is tax season and I do work as a government revenuer. I'm just too damn tired so I triage my priorities for right now. But looking forward to some good knife banter with you in the near future.

Welcome to the forum. I use my little 1x30 for everything. I have a $400 grinder that gets no attention because the HF is so handy.
