I really want to get the hones out again. I just have to figure how to explain how I got em to the wife since she does not know I got em yet. I doubt she knows how much they cost but I think I'll wait till she is at work tomorrow. Or I may be in for it.:rant:I checked the bevel I do have at 40X and it is even and clean not that it does any good if it is not the length of the blade but I'll take what little victory I can.
