Absolutely the only time the heat treatment is damaged is if you let the edge get to hot. I use a 1x30 never had a issue. With these factory knives at most the edge might be overheated. It’s important to grind without gloves so you can feel the heat. The problem is it only takes a few seconds to heat a very fine edge. Most knives come from manufacturers have edge issues. I was told you don’t get to know how good a knife is until it’s been sharpened 5-7 times. That’s not stropped that’s sharpened I personally believe you know after 3 sharpenings. Convex has its cost. But it’s the best when it’s done right.
Great video! Just to be clear, at the 5:47 minute mark, he says "you want the belt as TIGHT as possible", not "as LIGHT as possible"? Tighter than you'd normally run the belt?? And what's the estimated belt speed being used here?
@@michiganprotection I appreciate the response! Thanks, I'll tension the belt up a bit more now. I thought "slack" belt meant slack but not that slack I guess, haha (:
