Phrank, I heard from Dickens yesterday, He said would you please return the 10/8 he loaned you a while back. He needs to trims his (h)edges and misses it chopping ability.

I was taught 100 linen, 100 leather. Then I realized I don't live with a high humidity bathroom. On my own I decided to conquer my OCD and slowly brought it down to 20 -30 linen and 42 - 57 leather (I didn't say I eliminated my OCD) and the edge quality did not degrade. I would like to work on thought control and think my edges sharp in for nothing else than to save a few minutes a day for other obsessions.
