But yes grey shadow if your using a 1x42 I would think your doing the right thing grinding before HT unless you have a powerfull grinder and good ceramic belts you have to. A lot of the knives I make are made from stainless CPMS35VN and they do come out hard probilly a lil harder than the D2 but still same thing you need a diamond stone if your going to use stones. it will take forever on a different type of stone....I just recently started to learn to sharpen on the grinder I had a hard time at first but its getting better.....leaves a convex edge of corse tho.
