So you are saying that if I remove the apex mor than once during my honing session it is joining/jointing the edge and if I only do it as part of the bevel set it is killing the edge.
Or
Are you saying that if I dull the edge before I start to set the bevel, that I am killing it, and everything else is joining/jointing.
Sorry Ron, I'm just trying to get it right, I am not trying to be a thorn.
