Sanda - Vol. 11 Ch. 93 - Emotions of a Sharpener

Just realized, what if Sanda didn't put the whetstone in any water and just sharpened it raw 😭

Ty for the translation! And happy that you're enjoying Dark Souls 3. It's def my favorite in the franchise along with Elden Ring.

 

[DeliciousWallMeat]

S'why you need Krampus around, to thrash naughty children with a switch and then put them into a basket to take to Hell.

Traditional ski folded 1000 times

Salt slammed right on raw flesh, muscle and nerves. Not poured, but slammed!

That must sting like Hell.

Before the fucker can transform himself, snap his little neck. It'd be easy. Crush his trachae, snap his spine.

We need Black Sanda back to kick bear kid's ass

Before the fucker can transform himself, snap his little neck. It'd be easy. Crush his trachae, snap his spine.

But he’s a kid! Can Santa Claus kill a naughty kid?

 

[BalrogDeMorgoth]

Yet another anti-climax that did nothing.

That sled sharpening page is insane lol. Another "you can only get this from ItaParu" moment for me.

 

[Kushikime]

Thanks for the chapter

I never said Sanda needed to transform. Anger can do a lot with enough adrenaline. Kid on Kid violence... such a terrible waste. Thoughts and prayers, etc.

Well, lubricants only carry removed steel (and for some relatively modern stones spent abrasive) off of the stone’s face. Without enough water or oil, retained metal fragments in the face of the stone clog up the abrasive on the stone’s face, but not entirely, and what’s showing will still abrade metal. Enough force will even shear off layers of the stone, also ripping off the retained metal in the process.

In reality it can be beneficial when sharpening a tool to work with less lubrication and let the stone load up a little bit to control speed and degree of polish. Particularly relevant with some Japanese natural stones.

3/10 sharpening scene. Insufficient lubricant. Impossible angle control considering the force being used. Poor stone maintenance habits. And no utility in getting that degree of polish over the surface of the entire blade; what kind of self respecting mythological cryptid human hybrid tween hasn’t heard of a microbevel?
