I'll see what I can do on the video front, and definitely do some pictorials.

Cheers

Turns out I can get a flawless mirror finish. If anyone's interested, I'll start a new thread tomorrow for my K5 remodeling. I'm going to take the whole blade (top to bottom, so this will include the pivot holes, tang pins and everything in between) to a mirror finish, polish the phosphor washers up to 2000 grit, reset the bevel at a new angle, sharpen it up to around 5000 grit, then strop it, and picture every last screw...

If anyone wants to see any ofthese steps in particular detail, let me know. Otherwise I'll just do basic pics and info.

Cheers,
Jeremy

Fourthed.

Also, I'll be the first to request pics of the horrific push-cut wounds the blade inflicts with a polished edge!

I have a factory polished kimi 2 and it does not seem slippery at all to me.
