Sharpening the Arcane Design Preytheon pt. 1

Published: 1 year ago

I put my new @arcane_design_co Preytheon through a bunch of cardboard to test the edge last night. Slices really nicely and the factory edge held up very well. Stropped back to hair popping really easily after a lot of cutting.

I wanted to sharpen it after that, just remove a little material, lower the angle slightly. I'm only using one stone for this, my Venev F240/F400. Old angle was 21/22, I brought it down a little bit to about 19 dps.

Side note, the 20CV steel on this blade felt really nice. Not sure what hardness Bestech is hitting, but my guess would be high.
