Kyle-- as a knifemaker when I sharpen one of my convex blades, I will follow a similar method as you describe. Murray Carter has a couple of videos that are great as well for your viewers, as does Virtuovice. One suggestion I can make regarding removing the scratches: You are virtually always going to have smudge marks left by the stone, regardless of the grit level. In order to remove the smudges, I recommend using some wet/dry automotive sandpaper after you're finished. Sand the blade lengthwise. In the event you are not careful during this process, you might have to go back and address the apex with a couple of strokes on the stone or strop to restore the edge, but that's not a big deal. The sandpaper (1500 grit or so) will bring back that factory look on the blade. Forrest

This was killer! Thanks Kyle!

Not to sound critical because I really enjoy your videos. ...this one no exception. ...if you want to get all the scratches out and maintain or even improve the factory look. You need to work the thousand grit until all the 400 scratches are gone, and the 3k until the 1k is gone ect. Once you move past the 1k to 3k...any 400 scratches will be very difficult to remove. As long as the jump in grit isn't too severe, and in this case it is not at all, it won't take too long to replace all the previous stones scratch pattern. I know this isn't news to you but this point wasn't clear in the video and I thought some viewers might find this comment helpful. Thanks again for the video.

Kyle, if you lived closer you would get all my sharpening business! I am okay at sharpening - still learning - but you are a true pro! Thank you for sharing your techniques.

Love your sharpening videos, really appreciate you passing on your knowledge. Thank you

beauty of a knife and a stellar video. Well done man.

You are an artist. I cannot imagine what a mess I might have made out of that. Great video. Thank you.

Excellent tutorial Kyle!

Beautiful knife and a fine sharpening job.

Great job as usual. Convex grinds can be very intimidating but as you showed it can definitely be done on a whetstone. It takes me forever to do them because I'm always afraid I'm not following the contour properly so I keep wiping them off every few strokes to check. It's like everything tho I guess. If I done more of them it would come as naturally as flat grinds. Thanks for taking us along and cheers till the next one bud.

Out of curiosity can a blade with a convex edge cut through thick clothing

What grit Nagura stone would you recommend using with these and other combo stones

How would you return the mirror polish to the blade?

I have a convex but right on the end it's scandy I think. My knife is the helle utvaer

What is the best method to touch up a convex blade in the field (Like a moose hunting knife)?

I must say that one thing I've learned watching your videos is how important stropping is, I can usually keep the edge on my EDC slipjoints in quite nice condition by regular stropping alone , I would just like to add that my favourite grind is a hollow grind and they strop quite nicely, what are your thoughts on hollow grinds if any? Also do you have a favourite grind?

Gotta be honest Kyle, this seems like voo doo to me, kinda like shooting from the hip. To my mind, I'll stick to a pliable substrate or a flexible belt on the convex

How do you like that Sharp Pebble 400/1000 stone?

Hey Kyle, speaking of straight razors I recently purchased one. I've been looking for a new way to hurt myself.... But the thing came new sharp as a marble. A proper start to finish demonstration on straight razors would be great ( hint​ hint ) Thanks Again for another great show... And I'm going to get a few heads together so you can pick out the one ('s) ya want...... I apologise for the delay man.
