Pretty good review. Good quality, good customer service, and made in the USA come at a price. Making stuff in the USA these days is extremely expensive.
The Apex has an optional mount to C-clamp it to the table. I mounted mine to a base using the holes where the suction cups were. I love my Apex 4 and think it's well worth the price.
Then Venev stones are as the reviewers say imho . I still think diamonds are great , easier, cleaner and lower maintence . The way they both cut with extremely light pressure and make a beautiful perfect scratch pattern . Not to mention it’s been easier to get the heel and tip lately . In the grand scheme of things a fixed angle system has made sharpening a very enjoyable and rewarding skill to learn and perform . I m using the compact Hapstone RS with the magnet 🧲/ tube slide for edc sized knives .
I have the professional. The way i handle tantos is treat it like 2 independent edges. Often times the top part is s different angle than the long flat part.
Thanks for the feedback, that’s how it would be done on a clamped system too. Given that you have the professional, how do you feel my review was on this?
@@StropsandStones it’s spot on. Everything considered it it amazing supporting an amazing company, there is always someone willing to help. I have sharpened a cutlass sword on it. Mostly trying to prove a point about why clamps are not ideal
The Edge Pro was fine for its day, however, there are many options out there today that is a nicer build, lesser money and less of a pita to use. ONe question. What is a Tonto? I know what a Tanto is but Tonto? We talking Lone Rangers Sidekick here? KnifeMaker
8:00 minutes into the video, you changed the angle of the table, that exposed the fact, the silly suction cup had let lose. This is an upgrade? Imho if you want this style, made from all steel that has no plastic or suction cups, get a Hapstone V8 or R2.

Willing to spend a bit more for made in the USA...

May try the magnetic table on my RS. Something to do. ;
Very Helpful 🤙
The BASE IS MOVING ? Not good

Look again. The lever is on the opposite side of when he had it suctioned down. You failed the perception check, Bozo.
