Thanked: 0DMT Magnetic Honing Trick
I bought this 80th anniversary box of dmt hones from woodcraft (great clearance price) and the 8000 grit hone is held in the box by a large magnet. I let the blade sit on the magnet for a few seconds and it magnetized the blade a little bit.
When I go to hone the blade just sticks flat onto the metal surface of the dmt hones. It ensures light even pressure across the blade and really helps make the job a lot quicker and easier.
You honemeisters out there probably have no use for this, but I think it could definitely come in handy for us noobs.
