Thread: Unable to bevel the middle of one side

I'm not too far from you...come see me & we can fix it & have a honing lesson or three. I'm just north of Paris, TX about 20 miles. Your best way to learn to hone is FTF, period. You won't learn everything on a single visit, but you will learn a LOT in just a few hours on the stones. Nothing like getting a proper foundation to "hone" upon.

Personally, I don't use electrical tape NOW...but when I was learning to hone I would use it all the time. I still keep a roll around for Ebay blades and those that need a bit of edge correction before the actual bevel set. Do yourself and your blades a favor and use tape, no since abusing the blades and wearing them down for no reason.
