    My thanks to Ray for being such a gracious host. It was a real treat to meet all the attendees and finally put a face to the avatar (Kelly).

    The time spent was exceptionally productive with a large number of razor masters offering their expertise to one and all. Ray and Sham's food was not shabby, either.

    Thanks again Ray for putting on such a great event.

    Gents, that was really something. I could have spent a year scouring the forum for answers to all the questions I had. The generosity was so inspiring. And Ray, you're one hell of a host.

    Thanks to everyone who offered advice and insight. I'm now much more comfortable with honing. Ray thanks again for hosting this.

    The day after I got home I purchased a microscope. I learned an awful lot about honing and got to use a bunch of stones that I had never used before. It's really nice to be able to hone on a stone and compare it to others before buying it.

    I am happy for you buddy,

    You will be very happy with your scope. That is the one tool I have that I know with out question my edge is at each level it should be before going to the next stone, when I am done on my finishing stone I know there is a perfect edge on it or I see what the problem is and where I need to fix it.

    Yes, I've already seen where, if not for the scope, I would have moved on too soon.
