Sweet video. You should definitely add the bench mount accessory as well if you're sharpening on a non pourous surface. It will make that sucker rock solid. 🤘
Cool gadget. Im old skool and use regular whetstones as they do not care how long your blade is. Compound curves and long blades are why I learned to do everything without jigs. As an example a Kris dagger wouldn't work on that setup. Neil Kamimura has the best vids on hand grinding and sharpening. Forge On!!!
Yeah, I will always love a whetstone. I think it's important to learn those freehand methods first because jigs and guides can become a vise if that's all you learn
