    Yes Butzy. I think you've nailed it with the least to most difficult chart.

    For me, it was the other way around..

    Razor Honing helped my Knife and Tool Sharpening, never really sharpened a knife/tool, I used those little sharpener things to try and keep them sharp,, Keep in mind if they cut a Tomato in the Kitchen with ease they are plenty sharp IMHO.
    I would be more prone to buying New mower blades each year then ever thinking of sharpening one Now however I actually sharpen Mower Blade, Axes, Chainsaws Chisels, even Leather Tools and Lathe Gouges..
    Perhaps it is the fact I have all the Stones, Hones, Wheels, and Belts to do so...

    So I look at it in the reverse

    True, it might really depend on what you started out with in the beginning...
