Thread: Hone of the Day

This Trans Ark is my first/only natural hone.
It’s been fun learning to use it.
Recently the last two touch ups with it has been dry. With less laps than with lather.
Starting with a little pressure and ending with WOTB. So far the results are positive. Same nice edge with 1/3 the laps.
Why I decided to use it dry is because the feedback with a lubricant such as lather. Was nonexistent. With varying pressure and dry I can “feel” the stone working.
