I had the spyderco sharp maker with the ultra fine rods as well, a good system with a really well thought out case, however it does not even come close to the edge I can get with the wicked edge, so saying the wicked edge as I have set up now cost well over a grand, so if you only have a couple of knives it’s probably not worth it.

Extra strops? Or other whizz bang bits

I'm in the hole for around 700 bucks with mine and would say I use it a fair bit. I also have different angles for different knives so being able to record and repeat them, helps a lot and saves a lot of time as most just need a tickle up from 800 then a polish.

I actually just sharpened 2 bahco? Knives. Dunno what steel they use but I can get those bloody things scary sharp really quick.
That knife you made for me has done a few animals and I still havent touched it. I havent dinged any bone with it tho.

Same Swedish stuff as Mora (and out of the same factory) I think? Sandvik 12C27 according to the internet.
