Thread: My honing 101 home schooling course

I have a clear view of the abrasion from the stone and it is definitely NOT parallel with the edge!
Don't even need a Sharpie for this.

I have a fairly straight "grind line" BUT...
It is about 1/8" wide at the toe and about 1/4" wide at the heel.

Doesn't look like I'm anywhere near the edge or near forming a bevel yet.


But THAT'S OK...
I need the practice to perfect my strokes -- if I didn't, I would go to my 220 stone.

I may switch to circular strokes for a while...
No matter which way I do it, I don't have to remember where I was in my pyramid sequence!
