  On a related topic, does anyone recommend a decent place in VIC to get these sharpened?

      Thanks for the advice. I just remembered that I saved a bunch of information about knives and sharpening on my PC about three years ago. One the recommendations was to watch the stone sharpening videos by Japanese Knife Imports.

      I can imagine that it could get a bit overwhelming. It kinda reminds me of car paint polishing.

        Good knife will stay sharp long time (if not abused).
        I won't be able to develop sharpening skills if I sharpen them once a year. :)
        So tools like Apex help. :)

        @SickDmith:
        Hmm, I dunno about that. There are different types of "good" knives and they have different hardness levels. From what I recall, the harder knives develop small chips easier, while the softer ones get dull over time. It's been a long time since I've read about this topic, but Tojiro knives are on the harder end of the spectrum at their price points. They can be sharpened to have a finer edge than something like a Wusthof, but are a bit more delicate. I hope I remember all that correctly.

        @kahn:

        I have few knifes with Rockwell hardness 60 to 61 HRC. And they last long time - I have to sharpen them once or twice a year.
