I have bald patches on my arm

I bought this K-Bar knife off of William and picked it up from the Post Office yesterday

To me a knife is not sharp unless it will easily shave that hair off of my arm. Like all knives I get the first thing I do is sharpen them to my preferred angle and sharpness. This knife has good metal and it took a bit to get the edge I wanted on it. It's there now and I'm missing arm hair. It slices tomatoes pretty well too, I'm eating one for lunch, since I had to slice on with the new knife.

Same test I use . If it ain’t shaving sharp it ain’t sharp . An older buck fixed blade , from about 1979 is the hardest to sharpen that I own but it keeps an edge forever
Sounds like one of those John Wick movies.
