    Default Bevelled versus Rounded Edges for Narrow Hones

    I have been using a set of narrow hones in the 35-40 x 130-135mm range. At present they are chamfered along the edges. Normally, I'm fine using them, but given their relatively small and narrow size, every now and then a stray stroke sort of flies off the honing surface and onto the honing edge as it were. I am wondering if rounding the edges, rather than chamfering them, might ameliorate the outcome when this occurs.
