That's called ...Faceterbating. :roflmao
wow I love those stones! if I may what type are they? the Coti a Salm??
I got this Thuri from my uncle and tried it on this Economy. I got the scope out and decided it wasn't meeting the bevel on one side.
Did the Norton 1000/4000/ 8000 progression and tried it again.

Honed up this Kropp 7/8ths today.
It needed some slight restoration .
Light rust on the spine and general mank.
I cleaned the scales with alcohol swabs and used 1200k glass paper on the blade , followed by Mass .
Also used some toothpaste in the tang pin area .
It does need some more attention but I don't have the time to strip it rite now and I want to test the edge.
Also the heel could do with a visit to the Dremel . The photo makes it look worse than it is .
One layer of tape left it with a tiny bevel.
1k then a full Nagura progression.
The edge seems as keen as keen gets. I have to wait until next weekend to test it though , drat :)
