I used the method suggested by Euclid 440 with very satisfactory results. Thank you for the excellent advice; I'm sure it will save me much time on the hones in the future.

If you're referring to jointing the edge, I'll agree that's a large help. It used to confuse me, but now that I've tried it a few times I've gotten a better understanding of what it does. It really does help straighten the edge, sometimes I think better than you could if you simply kept trying to grind past the chips.
