Be sure & clean the blade well so the juice does not stain the blade.

I've seen that video and, as I recall, he was using the tomatoes to test his bevel set. I don't see how this can be used to test a finishing stone like the Sharptonn 16k. In my opinion, the ONLY way to test a finisher is the shave test.
