I haven't been much of a fan of a lot of Spydercos recent sharpening equipment, but I'm really enjoying their CBN stuff.

Interesting! Yeah I like their bench stones. Like all the bench stones I've tried from them. Love the lack of needing to do water clean up, and the aggressiveness they leave. A lot of people have drawn attention to the rough corners on the CBN plates, but I have had really really good results on them! Good to hear from you! Sorry for the delay in answering.
