Since all the cool kids are doing sharpening threads, I decided to do another one too...
Since I have finally gotten around to getting a grinder (8”), I now have a choice to make. I can (and by mechanics will?) have a hollow grind. Since I started, I have been using the Charlesworth method (microbevels & Ruger trick) as discussed in the ‘Bevels’ thread recently. But if I grind, I can dump the guide (or all 3 I have lol) and use the Cohen method.
so why would I? The Charlesworth method has worked fine for me. However, since it involves so many moving pieces, I probably don’t sharpen as often as I should.
I know this is a very subjective but I would like the collective wisdom of the horde.
