    I envision that while you are trying to sleep a vision of the perfect Zulu natural hone appears softly whispering---A. Aron, I'm waiting for you, why don't you help me? I need you, please come for me. Then the vision starts to weep and calls again, Please A. Aron help me, I need you, please---------help--------------

    Then you awake in a cold sweat, shaking and shivering then rush to the computer and end the hones suffering.

    Only three on the hones today, the Puma Gold looks to have been heavily restored, not sure if the edge will hold up, well the only way to answer that question will be to shave with it a few times, I've informed the owner so we shall see?

    Odds should be in favour of the Puma due to the steel being generally top notch. As long as they didn't cook the edge.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
