HONING

Funny why that would be it is it simply rubbing steel on stone


Just pointing out the facts, please carry on

You're 100% right - the fact is that most people couldn't hone a blade properly if they tried. A straight has to be honed properly or it hurts - there's no pretending you can lol. You can or you can't.

But that doesn't take away from the fact that if you understand how to hone, you understand what it means to hone.

You know?
