ahh nvm it says

im just blind for chinkformating

1500 is nice startting point tho

240 is quite cruel if you have even half-decent edge on it

maybe for axes dohohoho

<--has 1000 sandpaper and 6000̃ish stone

i need to get similar 600-1500 for my abuseknives

It's a really ancient knife set

my parents used it for 12 years and never sharpened them

but they are pretty expensive WMF knives

so I want to try to restore with the 240

ahh that explains

they wanted to throw them away and I interjected and took them to my home instead

the edge is basically a flat area

also I expect the chink stones to be softer

240 but probably shit quality, soft and will wear off fast

so 240 != 240

thats still decent looking tho

seen worse in kitchen :P

aka "the can openers"

you wouldn't go with the 240 on that?

That's the other knife. I'll start with the 600 on that

yeah you should feel it quite fast if it needs 240 or if its only making it worse

also our kitchen had couple of arcos knives.. id say they are great as long as you avoid em

the steel is nice and well made+ takes darn good edge

but their handles give tiny tiny plastic splinters all over your hands after a while

i plan buying one of those and refitting wooden handle to it

<:chink:323022148870602752> That sounds so retarded that I cannot even imagine it.

@ plastic splinter handles

its some tiny tiny needles/plastic just pressure+heat formed into handle slabs

Disgusting.

couple of machines washes and those tiny needles starts to poke out slightly

and then the hell begins

POM handles are just shit

there proper model picture even

we had 1 with rosewood handle and it was really nice

their "nitrum(tm)" steel is probly just some "yet another mix of molybd steel

@NC reeeee
