    If nothing else you still have a nice set of scales.

    I will only echo what some others have said that my Sheffields don't take an Gok 20k edge. And if I do it'll only be 5 laps.

    I have a Joseph Elliot 'The Hamburg Ring' that people have told me is a Sheffield. Other than that razor, which holds a great fine edge, I have always thought that all of the Sheffeilds that I've honed were much too soft.

    My Wade and Butchers and other Sheffield blades really like my coticules. I finish the coti edges on CrOx, linen and leather. They seem to last.
