Thread: Removing nicks from a blade

I've been honing for a few years and I've spent a lot of time and cash on honing.
I hone about 2 hours per day with all my blades and my 2 brothers larger collections I always have blades to hone.
My older brother wants me to one day show him how to hone. He thinks he can watch me for a session and then hone himself.
Its more of a skill that you have to learn on your own through practice and patients , having a passion for the art will see you through the life time of learning.
Of course the excellent people here will give you much needed advise but no one can tell how your arm and hand work in conjunction with your brain or how fast you will catch on to things.
Good luck anyway , you will get there eventually if you have the determination .
