So you have stropped on that Red Imp? Ah! It is no longer NOS!
What is the old Norton hone like?
I didn't strop on that Red Imp,I have another that I used,my mistake. I was tempted to.The Norton hone makes a keen edge fast and does not seem to sacrifice smooth,from what I remember.I hardly use it,but will now that its handy so I can give a more accurate opinion.
