Show off your sharpening kits!

[MertzMan]

So, show off your sharpening kits! What are you using and what do you sharpen with them?




I'm running with:

Masterclass 400/1000
King 4000 grit and Ice Bear Nagura
Lansky Axe Puck
Poundland stone for the ROUGH jobs and reprofiling..
Red stone of unknown grit, guessing around 2000
Guide for kitchen knives ( I do my convex and scandi freehand)
Home made strop from wooden floor sample and leather.

I'd like to get a DC4 and a small field strop too.

I use a dc4, Gransfors axe stone and Gransfors diamond file, sharkndesigns belt as a strop. I've made a system with very fine wet and dry in bench stone size, I would like some bench stones but I've never needed them because I just do,little touch ups and its keeps the blades lovely and sharp .

Not really. I have a few waterstones 1000 up to 10000 grit. Diamond stones. dc4. Cheapo stones. Belgian coticule(which are awsome)loads of strops which i use in conjunction with good old wet n dry.

I have strops scattered around the house for when the mood arises. I find stropping quite theraputic(is that weird?)

Oh I'd better not show mine. It lives in a four draw tool chest. The rest of it lives in a second toolbox. Well, most of the rest of it

I have all the grades of files, file cards, diamond files, diamond hones, diamond paddles, waterstones, oilstones, jigs, guides, five pound kits, Lansky kit, Duafold, Diafold, DC4, axe files, axe pucks,even have a full set of gathered and donated gritstones in all sorts of sizes.

I'll look forward to the day I have a sharpening kit half that good, bet it keeps the tools nice and slicey .
