So I went and ordered my first real hone tonight, a Zulu grey. I've read everything I can find on them and think I have a good idea on what to expect. With that being said, anyone have any advice for me since this will be my first experience with honing? Experience with these stones and the whole slurry thing would be appreciated as well.

I bought the 2"x6" size that comes with the matching slurry stone.

Thanks in advance for the great advice as always.
