    Default Terrific honing fluid

    This stuff not only helps give some wicked edges, but in certain situations helps take the edge off. Doesn't even cost an arm and a leg.

    I have had better luck with Knob Creek 120 producing better swarf. I think it was swarf, but it was getting hard to visualize properly toward the end of the honing/drinking session.

    I usually hone standing up. 120 proof might just be problematic in that regard.

    Well, I learn something everyday here.
    I'll get me a bottle tomorrow.
    Stimpy, will that amber color stain my Norton 4000 or my shapton 16000?
    If it does, I guess I could use the rest on my Carborundums.

    Skip the dilute step, and everything should be just fine.

    The real question Glen is whether you have tried Absinthe on a coticule?


    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
