    Default Historical perspective on Honemeisters...

    As a group, it appears that Honemeisters were not always as revered as they are today

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Honemeisters are trash: you don't want to associate with them!

    Scissor and knife sharpeners aren't very popular in the Netherlands: most of them are people of no fixed abode. They tend to charge a lot for poor quality work.

    This would explain why Lynn said he couldn't stay another night at the SE meet.

    When ever I hone anything it gives me nothing but pleasure, but the sound created (which I can not hear) drives my wife insane. Maybe the owners of this establishment had a similar aversion to my wife?
