Hello Everyone!

Unfortunately your best bet may be to buy another RR kit with a good hone in it. They are common enough that the occasional bargain does show up.
I've heard of people replacing the stone with hardwood of the proper thickness and 1um lapping film.
I think the hone side of the Rolls is for refreshing. If the blade is dull or chippy, it will never work.
My plan is to drill and tap the non-ball side hole to affix a handle so it can be run on the hones easier.

Tom,
Have you succeeded? or is that pic a mock up? I'm pretty sure the back of the blade is as hard as the rest of it, so I thought tapping would be a nightmare. I would go with a shorter handle, as you will probably have a tendency to lift the blade and hone unevenly. I should just make new stones already. (at least I THINK I know how)
Yeah, I went out and tried it just now. Too hard! :rofl2:.
I suppose the 'finger push' is the only way! I have an Everite Safety which has a threaded hole on the side as well.
Surely is nice to be able to hone and strop it with a handle on it.
