I have a Syderco Delica 4 with the FFG blade. It is starting to lose a bit of its sharpness, and this is the first knife I have had with a FFG blade. Is there anything different about sharpening this blade or is it exactly the same as any other knife?
Many people make the mistake of sharpening a knife when it really just needs a good stropping. Less sharpening and more stropping will prolong the life of the blade. I have seen people that sharpen the crap out of a knife and in a couple of years have taken as much as 1/4 inch of metal off, no kidding.
