Question for you, Slant-man:
I've got the Spyderco Fine and Ultra Fine. Since the consensus seems to be that the Swaty is about the same as the UF, why would I want to have a Swaty? When the chrome oxide strop doesn't get it quite as sharp as I want, then 10 passes or so on the UF followed by a few on the chrome oxide seems to work really well for me.
I do have an antique hone (original cost $1.00 on the box) which looks like a Swaty, but is marked "Swatstein" on the end. Haven't really tried it yet, although I've spent some time flattening it with an 800 grit stone.
