RAS has a pretty good idea....BM Lifesharp will take care of you....eventually. They can take several weeks to get your knife back to you. Plus, when it gets back, you'll use it and need to resharpen it soon enough. S30V is good but not invincible. So, I'd recommend pounding away at the Sharpmaker.

The thing I noticed is I can get good and fast at one or two knives. The others I fuss and fight with until I get them right. By that time, I'm not good at the original ones! I think I get familiar with the edges while I'm working them....each one is unique. Once I get them sharp, I've lost the feeling for the other blades. It never ends.

Keep trying Ors. Use the Sharpie marker. Increase the angle *just a tad* on your final passes on the white stones (corners, don;t use the flats) and use whisper-light pressure.
