They can be a lot to hone. With my 7-day sets, I like to set a bevel a day and then go back through and finish one a day. It takes 2 weeks but it allows me time to take notes, take breaks, and get really really nice edges.

Sometimes, I wish I had some of the cool naturals you fellows have....Along with the knowledge to use them.
And then I wake-up! I had been dreaming again..:D I really enjoy all the exotic hones!

Today's chore is a few nice blades. A Torrey Army with little wear, but has been banging around in a draw for ages.

I feel it prudent to run it on the green Naniwa a bit before enjoining an old reground Manhattan at the Naniwa 1k before moving on.

How's about those scales? ;)

You too, Tom? I’ve found my Jnat curiosity to be in remission now that I’ve got that SG20k. :rolleyes:

:rofl2: Good point, Tom.

Thanks for pointing out those crazy camoflauge scales that I missed in my haste to reply...or, because they disappeared on the big, green brick. :rofl2:

I only half joke at work that i would like our uniforms to be 8"x 10" off white rectangles.

To match the concrete block walls! :rofl2:
