Yes I did use the angle cube on the EP but I was looking to avoid that hassle with the Weps. I try to use the EP on a color mark if I am going from scratch. This way it's repeatable without using the angle cube. With the Weps I guess I could do it once with the cube and see and write down the results. The EP is infinitely adjustable and with the weps you have to set to the nearest notch. So I am thinking that for a touch up I would set to the nearest notch on the guide leaning to the acute side.
Knives that were sharpened on the weps from the get go are of course no problem to touch up if you keep track of your settings. Just set up and go starting with the 600 grit and on up. A touch up I am guessing should take just a few minuets.

Thanks Curtis.
I need to scrounge up a bunch of knives to sharpen. I have the Edge Pro as well for a long time so I don't have any dull knives around. Not sure about touch ups on the Weps for knives sharpened on the edge pro because, I have written down the EP settings and dont think it will correlate accurately to the Weps.

Hello To All,
I just got my WEPS pp1 a few days ago and let me tell you I am impressed. I was on the fence for a while on making the jump to it. It is an investment to be sure, but if you are into sharp knives you will not be disappointed. There is a very short learning curve to the motion of the arms but by the finish of my first knife it felt comfortable and easy.
I raised a burr on both sides with the 100 grit stones and did follow up with the rest of them but did not shoot for a burr each time. I just worked a dozen or so strokes till the feel was smooth and moved on to the next set of stones. Is this what you all are doing? The knife did finish up nice and sharp after the stropping with the two pastes included in the kit.
I did notice the knife clamp base where the lower screw pushes on, to get a nice burr or indentation. Anyone else notice this and is there a way to alleviate it?

I like the look of the case and it woud be great for storage. No wheels for me but others might want or need them.
Any ideas on pricing yet?

Waiting is expected with the Web site telling you as much. Billing for an item weeks before it ships seems to me to be an inappropriate business model. I too placed an order expecting to wait . I had not expected to be billed immediately but rather when ready to ship.
