Thread: Perfect hone for my Sheffield shorty

Have a thuri bout that is about 115 mm long and 20-24mm wide that I lapped enough so I could hone on it. Razor is a sheffield wedge that was turned into a shorty at some time or another. Was really fun honing on it so I thought I would share.

edit: will add 1 minute youtube video after it proccesses, other vid link was to different forum not sure if that was allowed

Thanks for sharing the video too. That stone size reminds me of edge pro stones... So someone with a shorty like yours (but no thury) could get a set of edgepro stones to keep it sharp.

Nice Stone my friend

If its flat and it sharpens whatever works I suppose. Although I think I would recommend getting like a barber hone or something if there was budget issue.

Maybe a bit of rolling strokes will work fine in those thin elongated thuries , hehe just sugesting

I did earlier in the original video. Just wanted to post short video of finishing strokes on the stone
