    I ended up doing a lot of lapping on 600 grit wd sandpaper. The face was still too rough and the hone is so hard that it doesn't break in at all.

    Hone was STILL scratching the edge. So I ran this over 4000, 6000 and 8000 polishing paper to finally get a consistant surface. The hone is just so damned hard it doesn't wear in at all. The flip side of that is now that's it's smooth, it will stay that way.
