Hey Jon,
How the heck are ya man? Good to see you posting here. I’ll be honest, I can’t get a conventional 3 blade anywhere near as sharp as a two blade. Back in the late 70s I had some of the original Snuffers that I was able to get “off the scale sharp” but it took a very long time. Never been able to reproduce those results since though. We had radius tooth files and stones of every grit on the table at Denton a couple weeks back and I had every 3 blade shooter who came to our table sharpen a Woodsman, explaining their individual techniques as they workd and not one of them could get the head to shave cleanly. I think from a sharpening theory standpoint, everything about sharpening two blades at the same time is just wrong. Hopefully Standing Bear will enlighten both of us.
