[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 268958, member: 3162"] Hold it the same every time. Ideally it is about 30 degrees but if you hold it at 40 degrees both ways, it will get sharp. You just can't go 30, 35, 40, 32 and back and forth each sweep. One way you can "cheat" is to hold the knife the same way in your hand on the up and down roll but turn the stone to the exact desired angle alternatively on each stroke. I do that with an unusually long blade. [/QUOTE]
