Thread: What am I doinf wrong? Un even bevel

To the OP:
Pressure, is not as bad as uneven pressure, Imagine you are driving down an icy road and that uneven bevel is a rut, if you catch the rut it steers you but if you "Plow" (hone) the rut out of there you create a smooth even surface on which to "Drive" (shave)

Now you have to apply pressure as you hone to take those "Ruts" out of there...
Sometimes a layer or two of tape can help with this sometimes it makes life worse

To Bandman:
Warped blades need an exaggerated X to get sharp... Some use a Rolling/Rocking X, Some use a narrow hone, and some of us use a 45+ Degree heel forward angle...
If you look in the Vids section on the site you will find all this...
