So I've tried and tried. I can put a decent edge on a blade.

But ive got a good friend that sharpens professionally.
Ryan Gleason> Gleasons Wicked Edge on FB.

Very reasonable. I sent a few so so knives once after someone recommended him to me.
Ive barely trusted my edges to myself since.

Its a sharp like nothing I've seen consistently.
Ive actually had a few purchased from Retailers and a few customs sent directly to him before to me. Haha

he isn't affordable (starting at $12) and offers 2 edges. Toothy (working) and mirror. Some knives with stonewashed patinas just glimmer with mirror edge.

Here are are a few I found real quick.

That's a good polish job! I wish I had the equipment to get mine like that! Lol! I have the patience just not the $!
 
Wow... incredible work! That is a no joke mirror finish.


I use a lansky setup and finish on a leather strop, but I can't compare my results to those photos. Mine are plenty sharp, but not nearly that perfect. And the lansky tends to over grind on the curves.
