    Oh you can hone warped blades on the shaptons or any other wide stone all you need is practice and more practice

    Welcome to the DARK side. The side were science blends into art...
    Just be advised, it ISN'T over...there will be a power- a force,this force can't be resisted. You will need MORE HONES. Belgium rocks...then Escher's and maybe even a strange natural slab from the far east-it will have strange symbols and cost $$$$$.

    But you'll love it when the steel touches flesh.

    It's a big investment, but your thinking's probably right! If you bought a cheaper alternative it'd only be a matter of time 'till you got the Shaptons too.
    Then again, Lt.Arclight's probably right. You'll need more........., always more!
