    I have one with small inclusions that are very hard to see. When honing it feels like a bit of grit is tumbling to and fro on the surface,

    I suspected the edges fist, so I well-rounded rather than arrised them - it was not the edges. So I lapped it with my atomas again and all seemed well - until another 'scratchy' sensation became apparent.

    I continued using it like this, lapping it very often, but could never stop the unpleasant scratchy feeling, so I never use it now unless I feel somewhat masochismic.

    It is a very slow hone, somewhat metal specific, and for me the cons far outweighed the pros, I'm afraid.

    Regards,
    Neil
