Thread: Black Paste & Chrome and a tape question

Lynn,

Ok, but without tape how do you hone a blade with a Dovo Solingen logo on the side without taking it out? Or does a finishing hone not take off that much metal?

Sorry for the silly questions, I've just never honed anything other than a knife.

Thanks,

Sorry to be a pest but I'm taking from this that if it wasn't taped when the bevel was set, you shouldnt tape it in the future.

But I am kind of curious how you avoid taking off the peerty gold bits on the fancier Dovo blades?

My 3 line usa swatty and chrome oxide have arrived, waiting on my DMT D8C for lapping. Blade seems to be in pretty good shape, I guess my stropping has improved.
