I call it, Feeling my way towards Infinity. Taking a dull, abused blade and slowly, carefully bringing it to a strange, invisible edge that can shave hair like a barber and slice through meat like butter. The final product is a knife that demands respect. The edge of the blade is mirror smooth, without the common saw tooth that most knife sharpeners produce. This fine clean line will cut like a razor and does not dull as fast as a common edge. The superior convex character of the completed knife is geometrically more stable that the more common concave edge, removes less metal and is less likely to chip, crack, or bend. Good Knife Sharpening is not only a skill, but a kind of art form. Your Knife sharpener should not only know knives, but also understand the people who use them how they be handled. Just like a Samurai's sword was called his soul, for a good cook, their knives take on a deep meaning. $5 a knife!
