Okay, so I am still claiming I don't have HAD. Hanging with Wolfpack all the time makes this very hard. I was perfectly happy with 8 stones but as it turns out he was right about NEEDING the Frictionites and Carbs . The one that is a strop/hone combo I bought for the very nice W&B inside. The other 2 are Ducks, so of course I couldn't pass on them. Even if 1 happened to be A Fern something or other. Zak pointed on that one and I pulled both barrels immediately.
